Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 2P
The solar radiation for Tucson, Arizona, has been tabulated as
| Time, mo | J | F | M | A | M | J | J | A | S | O | N | D |
| Radiation,
|
144 | 188 | 245 | 311 | 351 | 359 | 308 | 287 | 260 | 211 | 159 | 131 |
Assuming each month is 30 days long, fit a sinusoid to these data. Use the resulting equation to predict the radiation in mid-August.

Steam tables, such as the one below, are published giving values of the function V = f(T, P) where V is the volume (in cubic feet) of one pound of steam at a temperature of T (in degrees Fahrenheit) and pressure P (in pounds per square inch).

[Hint: Use the tables to approximate your partial derivatives and recall the equation of our tangent plane is: V = VT(T − To) + Vp(P - Po) + f(T, P) ] b) Use the tangent plane to estimate the volume of a pound of steam at a temperature of 525°F and P near 24.3 lb/in².arrow_forwardCardiologists use the short-range scaling exponent α1, which measures the randomness of heart rate patterns, as a tool to assess risk of heart attack. The article “Applying Fractal Analysis to Short Sets of Heart Rate Variability Data” compared values of α1 computed from long series of measurements (approximately 40,000 heartbeats) with those estimated from the first 300 beats to determine how well the long-term measurement (y) could be predicted the short-term one (x).
