Qn 14
A 0.460-kg pendulum bob passes through the lowest part of its path at a speed of 3.42 m/s.
(a) What is the magnitude of the tension in the pendulum cable at this point if the pendulum is 70.0 cm long?
12.194
(b) When the pendulum reaches its highest point, what angle does the cable make with the vertical? (Enter your answer to at least one decimal place.)
79.05
Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all
intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error.°
(c) What is the magnitude of the tension in the pendulum cable when the pendulum reaches its highest point?
.856
Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. N
