At 11:55 p. m., Thomas ties a weight to the minute hand of a clock. The clockwise torque applied by the
weight (i. e. the force it applies on the clock's hand to move clockwise) varies in a periodic way that can be
modeled by a trigonometric function.
The torque peaks 15 minutes after each whole hour, when the minute hand is pointing directly to the right,
at 3 Nm (Newton metre, the SI unit for torque). The minimum torque of -3 Nm occurs 15 minutes
before each whole hour, when the minute hand is pointing directly to the left.
Find the formula of the trigonometric functid that models the torque applied by the weight t minutes
after Thomas attached the weight. Define the function using radians.
