Owen is jumping on a trampoline. When his feet hit the deck of the trampoline, the material depresses to a minimum height of 2cm above the ground. On average, Owen is reaching a maximum height of 200cm every 10 seconds. Determine the equation of a sinusoidal function that would model this situation, assuming Owen reaches his first maximum at 6 seconds.
