A fly is standing on a boulder, which is rolling down a hill. The forward torque the fly exerts on the boulder when it has rolled x meters, in newton meters, is given byτ(x)=10002sin(42π(x+0.2)).What is the midline of this function? Give an exact answer.y=
Q. A fly is standing on a boulder, which is rolling down a hill. The forward torque the fly exerts on the boulder when it has rolled x meters, in newton meters, is given byτ(x)=10002sin(42π(x+0.2)).What is the midline of this function? Give an exact answer.y=
Calculate Midline: The midline of a sinusoidal function is the average of its maximum and minimum values, which is also the vertical shift D in the function τ(x)=A⋅sin(Bx+C)+D.
Identify Vertical Shift: In the given function τ(x)=10002⋅sin(42π⋅(x+0.2)), there is no vertical shift, so D=0.
Final Midline: Therefore, the midline of the function is y=0.
