Answer:
Either B or D. The answer itself is 2.
Explanation:
The equation for the kinetic energy would be 1/2*mv^2.
When m is doubled, we can plug in 1 and 2 to compare our answers.
Plugging in 1 for mass would give us the answer 1/2*v^2.
Plugging in 2 for mass would give us v^2. This means that the velocity was multiplied by 2, meaning that the answer is it is multiplied by 2.
I am not sure which answer is correct since there seems to be two answer choices with 2 in it, but the answer is either B or D (I will call it ABCD because I do not want to cause confusion by saying 2 multiple times).
Hi there!
We can use the kinematic equation:

vf = Final velocity (? m/s)
vi = initial velocity (0 m/s, dropped from rest)
a = acceleration (due to gravity, 9.8 m/s²)
d = distance (9.8 m)
Simplify the equation to solve for vf:

Substitute in the given values:

Answer:
1 / 2 m v^2 = L m g (1 - cos θ)
This is the KE due to the pendulum falling from a 25 deg displacement
v^2 = 2 L g (1 - cos 25) = 2 * 2 * 9.8 (1 - .906) = 3.67 m^2/s^2
v = 1.92 m/s this is the speed due to an initial displacement of 25 deg
Its speed at the bottom would then be
1.92 + 1.2 = 3.12 m/s since it gains 1.92 m/s from its initial displacement
The average power output is the ratio between the work done to compress the spring, W, and the time taken, t:

(1)
The work done is equal to the elastic energy stored by the compressed spring:

where

is the spring constant and

is the compression of the spring. If we substitute the numbers, we find:

And now we can use eq.(1) to calculate the average power output:
