Modeling with sinusoidal functions: phase shift

A fly is standing on a boulder, which is rolling down a hill. The forward torque the fly exerts on the boulder when it has rolled xx meters, in newton meters, is given by
τ(x)=21000sin(2π(x+0.2)4)\qquad \tau(x) = \dfrac{2}{1000}\sin\left(\dfrac{2\pi (x+0.2)}{4}\right).
What is the midline of this function? Give an exact answer.
y=y =
