Question

3. A pendulum has the maximum kinetic energy when it is
a) between the mean position and the extreme position.
b) at the left extreme position.
c) at the right extreme position.
d) at the mean position.

Answer 1

Answer:

Between the mean position and the extreme position

Answer 2

A Pendulum will have the maximum kinetic energy at the mean position because the potential energy at the mean position is 0, and by conservation of energy, I. E.

PE+KE=total energy

We see that KE is maximum
