For a person at rest, the velocity v (in liters per second) of airflow during a respiratory cycle (the time from the beginning of one breath to the beginning of the next) is given by ​ v=0.85sin(πt2)v = 0.85 \sin \left( \frac { \pi t } { 2 } \right) , ​ where t is the time (in seconds). (Inhalation occurs when v > 0 and exhalation occurs when v < 0.) Select the graph of this velocity function. ​
