f(x) = sin pi over 290 x f(x) = sin 290πx f(x) = sin 580πx f(x) = sin pi over 580 x

@Brill

OpenStudy (danjs):

the angle is in nanometers the period on the graph is 590 nm normal period is 2pi

OpenStudy (danjs):

Sin(B*x) you have 590 = ( 2pi ) / B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay

OpenStudy (danjs):

that is the coefficient to use with that period of the light for the function f(x) = Sin( B*x )

OpenStudy (danjs):

B=2pi / 580 = pi / 290

That'ts what I got; now I'm just confused on what the difference is between A and C.
