Blood Pressure Each time your heart beats, your blood pressure increases, then decreases as the heart rests between beats. A certain person’s blood pressure is modeled by the function
where p(t) is the pressure (in mmHg) at time t, measured in minutes.
- (a) Find the amplitude, period, and frequency of p.
- (b) Sketch a graph of p.
- (c) If a person is exercising, his or her heart beats faster. How does this affect the period and frequency of p?
(a)
The value of amplitude, period and frequency of p for the given function.
Answer to Problem 29E
The value of amplitude for the equation
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The function which gives the blood pressure of a certain person at time t in minutes is
Calculation:
The general form of the sine function representing harmonic motion is shown below.
Where,
a is amplitude.
b is the average oscillation of an object.
c represents the position of an object at
The given function is shown below.
Compare the equation (1) and equation (2), then the value of a is 25, the value of
The formula to obtain time period p taken by an object to complete one cycle is shown below.
Substitute
Reciprocate the time period to find the value of frequency as shown below,
Substitute
Therefore, the value of amplitude is 25, the value of time period is
(b)
To sketch: The graph for the given function.
Explanation of Solution
The given function is shown below.
The representation of the function
Figure (1)
Therefore, the graph of the function
(c)
The effect on period and frequency when the heart of a man beats faster while exercising.
Explanation of Solution
A person’s heart beat increases while exercising implies that the frequency is increasing.
Time period is reciprocal of frequency therefore, whenever frequency increases time period decreases.
Thus, the frequency increases and time period decreases as a person exercises.

- The cup on the 9th hole of a golf course is located dead center in the middle of a circular green which is 40 feet in radius. Your ball is located as in the picture below. The ball follows a straight line path and exits the green at the right-most edge. Assume the ball travels 8 ft/sec. Introduce coordinates so that the cup is the origin of an xy-coordinate system and start by writing down the equations of the circle and the linear path of the ball. Provide numerical answers below with two decimal places of accuracy. 50 feet green ball 40 feet 9 cup ball path rough (a) The x-coordinate of the position where the ball enters the green will be (b) The ball will exit the green exactly seconds after it is hit. (c) Suppose that L is a line tangent to the boundary of the golf green and parallel to the path of the ball. Let Q be the point where the line is tangent to the circle. Notice that there are two possible positions for Q. Find the possible x-coordinates of Q: smallest x-coordinate =…arrow_forwardDraw the unit circle and plot the point P=(8,2).

We said that a differential equation is an equation that describes the derivative, or derivatives, of a function that is unknown to us. By a solution to a differential equation, we mean simply a function that satisfies this description. 2. Here is a differential equation which describes an unknown position function s(t): ds dt 318 4t+1, ds (a) To check that s(t) = 2t2 + t is a solution to this differential equation, calculate you really do get 4t +1. and check that dt' (b) Is s(t) = 2t2 +++ 4 also a solution to this differential equation? (c) Is s(t)=2t2 + 3t also a solution to this differential equation? ds 1 dt (d) To find all possible solutions, start with the differential equation = 4t + 1, then move dt to the right side of the equation by multiplying, and then integrate both sides. What do you get? (e) Does this differential equation have a unique solution, or an infinite family of solutions?arrow_forward
