45PRACTICE PROBLEM
A bungee jumper is preparing to jump off a bridge. The bungee cord is attached to a platform above the jumper and has been stretched and coiled. When the jumper jumps off the platform, they are propelled downwards by gravity. Write an equation for the distance of the jumper from the platform after t seconds.
Initial distance from the position at rest = 0
Amplitude = 1/6 centimeters
Period = 12 seconds
