Question

Consider the case of a swinging pendulum displaced to another point from its mean position. In which position (mean or extreme) does the bob have : a.Minimum P.E b.Maximum K.E c.Minimum K.E d.Maximum P.E​

Answer 1

Answer:

As the total mechanical energy in SHM is conserved.

KE+PE=c

And PE will be maximum if KE will be zero, and velocity is zero at extreme position.
