At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h

Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

$GPE=mgh$

we see that GPE is minimum when the bob is at the lowest point,so the correct answer is

2. at the lowest point
