Sinus

General form of a sinusoidal (sine wave) function

x(t)=m+asin(ωt+ϕ)x(t) = m + a \cdot sin(\omega t + \phi) x(t)=m+asin(2πft+ϕ)x(t) = m + a \cdot sin(2 \pi f t + \phi)

Where:

  • x(t)x(t): value of the function at time tt
  • mm: mean value
  • aa: amplitude of the oscillation
  • ω\omega: angular frequency (in radians per second), ω=2πf\omega = 2\pi f
  • ff: frequency in Hz (cycles per second)
  • ϕ\phi: phase shift (in radians)

Mean: 0
Amplitude: 2
Frequency: 0.5
Phase:
Scale: 27
