12. The University of Calgary's Institute for Space Research is leading a project to launch Cassiope, a hybrid space satellite. Cassiope will follow a path that may be modelled by the function h(t) = 350 sin 287(t - 25) + 400, where h is the height, in kilometres, of the satellite above Earth and t is the time, in days. a) Determine the period of the satellite. b) How many minutes will it take the satellite to orbit Earth? c) How many orbits per day will the satellite make? b)
