The water level, \(f\), in feet, at a certain beach is modeled by the function \(f(t) = 2\sin\left(\frac{2\pi t}{24}\right)\), where \(t\) is the number of hours since the level was measured.
The amount of the moon visible on day \(d\) in December is modeled by the equation \(f(d) = 0.5\cos\left(\frac{2\pi \boldcdot (d-6)}{30} \right)+0.5\). Select all the statements that are true for this model.
The model predicts a full moon on December 6.
The model predicts that there will be two full moons in December.
The model predicts that none of the moon will be visible on December 21.
The model predicts that more than half of the moon will be visible on December 13.
The model predicts that there is a full moon every 30 days.
One month, the amount of the moon visible \(d\) days after the beginning of the month is modeled by the equation \(y = 0.5\cos\left(\frac{2\pi d}{30} - \frac{\pi}{4}\right) + 0.5\).
The center of a clock is at \((0,0)\) in a coordinate system, and the hour hand is 8 inches long. It is 10:30 p.m. Which of the following are true of the end of the hour hand? Select all that apply.
Its coordinates are about \((\text-5.7,5.7)\).
Its coordinates are about \((5.7,\text-5.7)\).
Its coordinates are about \((\text-5.7,\text-5.7)\).
Its coordinates are \((8\cos(\frac{3\pi}{4}),8\sin(\frac{3\pi}{4}))\).
Its coordinates are \((8\sin(\frac{3\pi}{4}),8\cos(\frac{3\pi}{4}))\).
Label these points on the unit circle.
The function \(h\) given by \(h(\theta) = 15 + 4 \sin(\theta)\) models the height, in feet, at the tip of a windmill blade that has rotated through an angle, \(\theta\).
The vertical position of a seat on a Ferris wheel is described by the function \(f(t) = 80 \sin\left(\frac{2\pi t}{30}\right) + 95\). Time, \(t\), is measured in seconds, and the output of \(f\) is measured in feet.
Here is the initial position of a bike wheel before it starts to move.
The vertical position, in inches, of \(P\) is given by \(y = 10\boldcdot \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2} + 6\pi s\right) + 10\), where \(s\) is the number of seconds since the wheel began to move. Select all the true statements.
The wheel makes 3 revolutions per second.
The wheel makes one revolution every 3 seconds.
After \(\frac{1}{4}\) of a second, the point \(P\) will be in the position marked \(Q\).
After \(\frac{3}{4}\) of a second, the point \(P\) will be in the position marked \(Q\).
The radius of the wheel is 10 inches.
