This would be an example of what's called a sinusoidal function. The general form for that is:
y = A*sin(Bt-C)+D
Where A --> amplitude
B --> period = 2*pi/B
C --> phase shift = C/B
D --> vertical shift
So, simply matching the numbers up, the amplitude would be 2. And, the period would be 2*pi/5 = 0.4*pi.
