  2. Sine and cosine functions can be used to model real-world phenomena, such as sound waves. Different sounds create different waves. One way to distinguish sounds is to measure frequency.Frequency is the number of cycles in a given unit of time, so it is the reciprocal of the period of a function. Hertz (Hz) is the standard measure of frequency and represents one cycle per second. For example, the sound wave made by a tuning fork for middle A has a frequency of 440 Hz. This means that the wave repeats 440 times in 1 second.

  3. Sound Application Use a sine function to graph a sound wave with a period of 0.002 s and an amplitude of 3 cm. Find the frequency in hertz for this sound wave. Amplitude: Period: Frequency: The frequency of the sound wave is 500 Hz.

  4. Sound Application Use a sine function to graph a sound wave with a period of 0.004 s and an amplitude of 3 cm. Find the frequency in hertz for this sound wave. Amplitude: Period: Frequency: The frequency of the sound wave is 250 Hz.

  5. Employment Application The number of people, in thousands, employed in a resort town can be modeled by, month of the year. A. Graph the number of people employed in the town for one complete period. Amplitude: Period: left 2, up 5.2 Translation: B. What is the maximum number of people employed?

  6. Employment Application Suppose that the height H, in feet of a Ferris wheel can be modeled by, A. Graph the height of the cabin for one complete period. Amplitude: Period: up 24 Translation: What is the minimum height of the cabin on the Ferris Wheel?
