Answer:

The motion of a simple pendulum is very close to Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM). SHM results whenever a restoring force is proportional to the displacement, a relationship often known as Hooke's Law when applied to springs. Where F is the restoring force, k is the spring constant, and x is the displacement.

where θ is the angle the pendulum makes with the vertical. For small angles, sin(θ)∼θ, which would then lead to simple harmonic motion. For large angles, this approximation no longer holds, and the motion is not considered to be simple harmonic motion.

Use the definition of acceleration:

Acceleration = (change of velocity) divided by (time for the change)

The graph says:

Change of velocity = -6 m/s

Time for the change = 3 sec

So Acceleration = (-6m/s) / (3 s)

That's -6/3 m/s•s

or

-2 m/s^2

From the first law of thermodynamics, we use the equation expressed as:

ΔH = Q + W

where Q is the heat absorbed of the system and W is the work done.

We calculate as follows:

ΔH = Q + W
ΔH = 829 J + 690 J = 1519 J

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
