In a simple pendulum of length I the bob is pulled aside from its equilibrium position through an angle and then released. The bob passes through the equilibrium position with speed
Options
- A2 g l(1+ )
- B2 g l
- C2 ~g l
- D2 ~g l(1- )
Correct answer
D. 2 ~g l(1- )
Step-by-step solution
If l is length of pendulum and be angular amplitude then from principle of conservation of energy (Initial total energy) 0+ mgh = 1 2 m v²+0 (Final total energy) v= 2 g h = 2 g l(1- )
