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.
F=K*X,
F=M*a
M*a=K*X
2.5*9.81=K*0.0276
24.525=K*0.0276
24.525/0.0276=K
K= 888.6 N/m ---- force constant
assuming 2.5 refers to the new extension, just divide F/ 0.025
to get
981N/m

2. ice skating (friction between ice and skate blade)
3. swimming (water & skin)
4. rowing a boat (water and boat)
