Potential energy + kinetic energy = constant at every moment in time

At the highest point:

potential energy is at its maximum
kinetic energy is zero

Answer:

Kinetic energy(1/2mV²) = 0

Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy (mgh = 1/2mv²)

Explanation:

kinetic energy of an object or body has to do with the motion of the object/body at that point

Kinetic energy = 1/2MV²

The kinetic energy of the pendulum at the top of the arc is 0, this invariably means that there's no velocity of the pendulum at that point which makes it 0 (static). The Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy when the pendulum starts moving in the opposite direction after this period.
