At a certain ocean bay, the maximum height of the water is 4 m above | mean sea level at 8:00 a.m. The height is at a maximum again at 8:24 p.m. The lowest sea level is 4 m below mean sea level. a) Assuming that the relationship between the height, h, in metres, and the time, t, in hours, is sinusoidal, determine an equation to model the height of the water with respect to time. b) Determine the height of the water above mean sea level at 10:00 a.m.
