Question

Transcribed Image Text:6.
A toy on an elastic string is attached to the top of a doorway. It is pulled down and
released, allowing it to bounce up and down. The length of the elastic string, L centimetres, is
modelled by the function L = 110 + 25 cos cos (2t) where t is time in seconds after release.
(a) Find the length of the elastic string after 2 seconds.
(b)Find the minimum length of the string.
(c) Find the first time after release that the string is 85 cm.
(d)What is the period of the motion?
