The data in the table shows a sinusoidal relationship between the number of seconds an object has been moving and its velocity v(x), measured in centimeters per second.
x | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 | 22 | 24 |
v(x) | 34.5 | 31.3 | 26.1 | 20 | 13.9 | 8.7 | 5.2 | 4 | 5.2 | 8.7 | 13.9 | 20 |
