Answer:
The bottom/center of the pendulum
Explanation:
As it swings, the pendulum will have maximum potential energy at the top of its arc.
As it comes back towards the center that potential energy will convert into kinetic energy until it reaches the middle of its swing (when the pendulum is fully vertical) where all potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy.
This is when the kinetic energy is the highest
As it begins to move away from the center of its arc, that kinetic energy will convert into potential energy again, and the process repeats
Answer:
time rising = 34 / 9.8 = 3.47 sec
total time in air = 2 * 3.47 sec = 6.94 sec
(time rising must equal time falling)
R = 17 m/s * 6.94 s = 118 m
Can also use range formula
R = v^2 sin (2 theta) / g
tan theta = 34 / 17 = 2
theta = 63.4 deg
2 theta = 126.9 deg
sin 126.9 = .8
v^2 = 17^2 + 34^2 = 1445 m^2/s^2
R = 1445 * .8 / 9.8 = 118 m agreeing with answer found above
I believe that the answer is A but correct me if i’m wrong
