Question

A simple pendulum of length swings at a radius from a fixed point on the ceiling. As it moves, the pendulum creates an angle $\theta$ with the line that extends vertically downwards from the fixed point. At what angle does the mass attached to the pendulum have the highest kinetic energy?

Answer

The correct answer is $0^\circ$ . Since the pendulum is at the bottom of its motion at this point, it has the lowest amount of energy given to gravitational potential and thus, the highest kinetic energy.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

If a simple pendulum is constructed using a rope of negligible weight and a large steel ball weighing . What is the period of the pendulum?

Answer

Use the equation for the period of a simple pendulum:

$T=2\pi\sqrt\frac{L}{g}$

Here, is the period in seconds, is the length of the pendulum in meters, and is the acceleration due to gravity in $\frac{m}{s^2}$ .

We can plug in the given quantities for length and acceleration to solve for the period.

$T=2\pi\sqrt\frac{1}{9.8}\approx2s$

Note that the mass of the rope as negligible. We also need not incorporate the extraneous information regarding the weight of the steel ball attached to the pendulum. This does not influence the period of this simple pendulum.
