Explanation:
at point A and c energies are same as they are extreme positions
at point B energy is different ,it is mean position
Energy at mean position (B)
P.E=0
K.E is max
K.E=1/2mω^2A
where;
m=mass of Bob
ω=angular velocity
A=amplitude
total energy =P.E+K.E
=0+1/2mω^2A
=1/2mω^2A
Energy at extreme positions (A and C)
P.E is max
P.E=1/2mω^2A
K.E=0
total energy =P.E+K.E
=1/2mω^2A+0
=1/2mω^2A
you can see that energy is conserved
