A researcher observes and records the height of a weight moving up and down on the end of a spring. At the beginning of the observation the weight was at its highest point. From its resting position, it takes 12 seconds for the weight to reach its highest position, fall to its lowest position, and return to its resting position. The difference between the lowest and the highest points is 10 in. Assume the resting position is at y = 0.
The first point must be on the mid-line and the second point must be a maximum or minimum value on the graph closest to the first point.
