Answer:
The basic concept to apply in all the parts of the question is that :
1) Position B is the extreme position. Hence it has stopped and has no Velocity.
Thus the Bob has only Potential energy and no Kinetic energy.
PE = mgh = 0.2 × 10 × 5 = 10 J
So the total Mechanical Energy
= PE + KE
= 10 + 0
= 10 J
2) Since total Mechanical Energy remains constant , it will be 10 J even at point C
3) Potential energy at Point A is zero. Let Velocity at that point be v
∴ PE1 + KE1 = PE2 + KE2
=> 10 + 0 = 0 + ½mv²
=> ½mv² = 10
=> mv² = 20
=> 0.2 v² = 20
=> v² = 20/0.2 = 100
=> v = 10 m/s.
