wei is standing in wavy water and notices the depth of the waves varies in a periodic way that can be modeled by a trigonometric function. he starts a stopwatch to time the waves.



Answer :

The function of wavy water is  D(t) = 33.5 +21.5cos(2π/3·(t -1.1))

What are wave functions?

In quantum physics, a wave function is a mathematical representation of the quantum state of a standalone quantum system. The probabilities for potential outcomes of measurements performed on the system may be calculated from the wave function, which is a complex-valued probability amplitude.

The function can be ...

 D(t) = A +Bcos(C(t-p))

where A is the average depth (55+12)/2 = 33.5 cm,

 B is the peak deviation from average, 55 -33.5 = 21.5 cm,

 C is the horizontal scale factor (2π/T) = (2π/3) for a period (T) of 3 seconds,

and p is the phase offset, given as 1.1 seconds.

the function -

 D(t) = 33.5 +21.5cos(2π/3·(t -1.1))
