The brightness of a variable star adds a component to the simple harmonic motion we have studied in this lesson. since the brightness is variable the vertical axis may no longer be equal to zero. also included in the variance is a phase shift. in this case, the equation for this function would be: y = a cos w(t – c ) + b.

suppose we have a variable star whose brightness alternately increases and decreases. for this star, the time between periods of maximum brightness is 6.5 days. the average brightness (or magnitude) of the star is 5.0 and its brightness varies by + 0.25 magnitude.

1. what is the amplitude of the function for this model?

2. what is the period?

3. what is w?

4. what is the vertical shift?

5. is there a phase shift? if so, what is it?

6. what is the function

If your score on your next statistics test is converted to a z score, which of these z scores would you prefer: minus2.00, minus1.00, 0, 1.00, 2.00? why? a. the z score of 2.00 is most preferable because it is 2.00 standard deviations above the mean and would correspond to the highest of the five different possible test scores. b. the z score of 0 is most preferable because it corresponds to a test score equal to the mean. c. the z score of minus2.00 is most preferable because it is 2.00 standard deviations below the mean and would correspond to the highest of the five different possible test scores. d. the z score of minus1.00 is most preferable because it is 1.00 standard deviation below the mean and would correspond to an above average
