Problem 21
We can approximate the monthly rainfall in Los Angeles using the formula \(p(t)=1.6+1.6 \cos 2 \pi t\), where \(t\) is the fraction of the year elapsed since January 1 and \(p(t)\) is the rainfall measured in inches/month. (a) Explain (without doing any calculations) that there will be a value of \(t\) for which the monthly rainfall is exactly equal to the annual average rainfall. (b) Find this value of \(t\) (there may be more than one). (c) Assuming there are 12 months in a year and each month has the same duration, show that the total rainfall in one year is: $$ P_{\text {total }}=12 \int_{0}^{1} p(t) d t $$ Explain in particular why the factor 12 is needed and what the units of \(P_{\text {total }}\) are. (d) Calculate \(P_{\text {total }}\) -
