Question

A simple pendulum is given an initial tangential velocity such that it swings in a
complete circle around its fulcrum.

Assume:
● The string is 32 meters long
● The bob has mass M

Determine:

(A) The minimum velocity atthe top ofthe loop.

Now assume the mass passes
through the top of the loop with the
minimum found in part (a), above;

Determine:

(B) the velocity at an angle of 30 degrees from the vertical
(i.e.: at 30 degrees up from a position fully at the bottom of the loop).
