Answer:
41°
Explanation:
Kinetic energy at bottom = potential energy at top
½ mv² = mgh
½ v² = gh
h = v²/(2g)
h = (2.4 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)
h = 0.294 m
The pendulum rises to a height of above the bottom. To determine the angle, we need to use trigonometry (see attached diagram).
L − h = L cos θ
cos θ = (L − h) / L
cos θ = (1.2 − 0.294) / 1.2
θ = 41.0°
Rounded to two significant figures, the pendulum makes a maximum angle of 41° with the vertical.

The orbital speed of the clumps of matter around the black hole is equal to the ratio between the circumference of the orbit and the period of revolution:
where we have:
is the orbital speed
r is the orbital radius
is the orbital period
Solving for r, we find the distance of the clumps of matter from the centre of the black hole:
B.
The gravitational force between the black hole and the clumps of matter provides the centripetal force that keeps the matter in circular motion:
where
m is the mass of the clumps of matter
G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass of the black hole
Solving the formula for M, we find the mass of the black hole:
and considering the value of the solar mass
the mass of the black hole as a multiple of our sun's mass is
C.
The radius of the event horizon is equal to the Schwarzschild radius of the black hole, which is given by
where M is the mass of the black hole and c is the speed of light.
Substituting numbers into the formula, we find
