Problem 8
A note on the piano has given frequency \(F\). Suppose the maximum displacement at the center of the piano wire is given by \(s(0) .\) Find constants a and \(\omega\) so that the equation $$s(t)=a \cos \omega t$$ models this displacement. Graph s in the viewing window \([0,0.05]\) by \([-0.3,0.3].\) $$F=220 ; s(0)=0.06$$
Problem 13
The graphs of \(y=\sin x+1\) and \(y=\sin (x+1)\) are \(\mathrm{NOT}\) the same. Explain why this is so.
Problem 18
Graph each function over a one-period interval. $$y=2+\frac{1}{4} \sec \left(\frac{1}{2} x-\pi\right)$$
Problem 19
A weight attached to a spring is pulled down 3 in. below the equilibrium position. (a) Assuming that the frequency is \(\frac{6}{\pi}\) cycles per sec, determine a model that gives the position of the weight at time \(t\) seconds. (b) What is the period?
