Question

Swinging pendulum eventually stops because its energy is converted into

Answer 1

Answer:

When the pendulum initially starts swinging, it contains both, kinetic and gravitational energy. However, after a couple minutes, it loses all its energy to the atmosphere. in the form of heat. We know this because the pendulum comes in contact with the air in the room, causing friction; therefore, producing heat.

Answer 2

Answer:

Hope it helps

Explanation:

When the pendulum swings in air, it does work against the friction of the air to sustain swinging. In the process, some of the other energy is dissipated nd converted into thermal energy
