A water wave is created in a wave tank. It has an amplitude of 3 and a period of 4pi/5. Find the equation of this wave as a sine function.

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]y=3sin(\frac{5}{2}x)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know the following equation of sine function:

[tex]y=Asin(B(x+C))+D[/tex]

2. Where:

A is the amplitude.

[tex]B=\frac{2\pi}{period}[/tex]

C is phase shift and D is vertifcal shift

3. C and D are zero. Then:

[tex]A=3\\B=\frac{2\pi}{\frac{4\pi}{5}}=\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

4. Substitute these values into the equation:

[tex]y=3sin(\frac{5}{2}x)[/tex]
