The function f(t) = 65 sin (pi over 5t) + 35 models the temperature of a periodic chemical reaction where t represents time in hours. What are the maximum and minimum temperatures of the reaction, and how long does the entire cycle take?
Maximum: 100°; minimum: −30°; period: 10 hours
sin(πt/5) varies between -1 and 1, so f(t) varies between -30 and 100.
P=2π/π/5=10
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The general sinusoidal periodic function is,
\(f(t)=a\sin (b(t+c))+d\)
here,
Comparing this with the given function \(f(t)=65\sin\dfrac{\pi}{5}x+35\), we get
The maximum and minimum temperatures will be,
\(=35\pm 65\)
\(=-30,100\)
Time taken to complete one complete cycle is the period, so it is 10 hours.
