A weight is oscillating on the end of a spring (see figure). The position of the weight relative to the point of equilibrium is given by \(y=\frac{1}{12}(\cos 8 t-3 \sin 8 t),\) where \(y\) is the displacement (in meters) and \(t\) is the time (in seconds). Find the times when the weight is at the point of equilibrium \((y=0)\) for \(0 \leq t \leq 1\).
Use a graphing utility to approximate the solutions (to three decimal places) of the equation in the interval \([0,2 \pi)\). $$6 \sin ^{2} x-7 \sin x+2=0$$
Find the exact value of each expression. (a) \(\sin \left(315^{\circ}-60^{\circ}\right)\) (b) \(\sin 315^{\circ}-\sin 60^{\circ}\)
Consider the function given by \(f(x)=3 \sin (0.6 x-2)\). (a) Approximate the zero of the function in the interval [0,6] (b) A quadratic approximation agreeing with \(f\) at \(x=5\) is \(g(x)=-0.45 x^{2}+5.52 x-13.70 .\) Use a graphing utility to graph \(f\) and \(g\) in the same viewing window. Describe the result. (c) Use the Quadratic Formula to find the zeros of \(g\). Compare the zero in the interval [0,6] with the result of part (a).
Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. The equation \(2 \sin 4 t-1=0\) has four times the number of solutions in the interval \([0,2 \pi)\) as the equation \(2 \sin t-1=0\).
