A weight is attached to a spring suspended from a beam. At time t = 0, it is pulled down to a point 10 cm above the ground and released. After that, it bounces up and down between its minimum height of 10 cm and a maximum height of 26 cm, and its height h(t) is a sinusoidal function of time t. It first reaches a maximum height 1.4 seconds after starting. Consider the image attached of the sinusoidal function h(t). Determine the period for this function.

Equation of Waves

Wave is an oscillation or disturbance traveling in a medium. It performs the transportation of energy but does not carry any matter. This motion of waves will transport fuel in a medium without permanent transfer of mass (particle).
