At which point is the velocity the greatest? at which points is the velocity 0 m/s? at which point is the acceleration 0 m/s2? a
1 answer:
As per the image: The velocity is maximum at B. The velocity is O at C and A. The acceleration will be O at B
The acceleration is maximum at C and A.
How can it be said?
Two sketches are shown in the attached image. The first one is based on the principle of energy conservation, and it is simple to understand when the velocity is at its highest and when it will be zero.
The pendulum is at its highest height in points A and C relative to the reference point, giving us the most potential energy. Additionally, all of the potential energy had been converted into kinetic energy by the time the pendulum reached point B, therefore this is where its maximum velocity would be.
The second sketch, which displays a free body diagram of the pendulum when it is producing a theta angle with respect to the vertical plane, is shown for the acceleration analysis. Applying Newton's second law and taking into account the forces acting on the pendulum, we arrive at the equation shown in the picture.
With the knowledge that the equation will be zero (0) when the angle theta is 0, we can see that the acceleration, which has the same direction as the velocity, relies on the sin(theta). It implies that at point B, the acceleration will be 0. and at points Cand A, maximum.
