Chapter 4, Problem 4EP

The mass (m) of the pendulum bob may be varied. The effect this would have on the period might possibly depend on air resistance, so let’s suppose there isn’t any. If the pendulum were swinging in a vacuum, would the mass make any difference?

(b) What is the maximum speed? I have attached the file thanks.
The distance of a swinging pendulum from its resting position is given by the function dit) = 5.5cos(8), where the distance is in inchès and the time is in seconds. Once released, how long will it take the pendulum to reach its resting position? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
Consider a place where the gravity is one-fourth the gravity on Earth (g' = g/4), then the frequency of oscillation of a simple pendulum in that place, f', as compared to its frequency on earth is:
