  • The horizontal axis represents time, labeled with the variable \(t\).
  • The vertical axis represents the amplitude of the function, labeled with the variable \(T\).
  • The curve starts at a relatively high positive amplitude, forming the first peak.
  • This peak is followed by a trough that reaches a low negative amplitude.
  • Subsequent cycles are visible, with the amplitude of both the peaks and the troughs decreasing as time \(t\) increases.
  • The function appears to be decaying exponentially towards zero amplitude as \(t\) approaches larger values.
