What happen to the energy of compound pendulum when it is oscillating?
when oscillations taken energy of pendulum dissipates
How does energy undergo variation in an oscillating pendulum?
Potential energy is the greatest at the top of the pendulum swing, precisely as it is stopped. Kinetic energy is greatest at the bottom of its swing as it is moving its fastest. Between the two points the energies are converting into one another.
What happens to the energy in the pendulum as it swings from point a to point b?

When does a pendulum swing have the most momentum?
At the bottom of it's swing. This is because it has accelerated to it's peak velocity due to gravity.
What energy changes occur as a pendulum swings?
when a pendulum swings it creates pontential energy

How does energy undergo variation in an oscillating pendulum?
Potential energy is the greatest at the top of the pendulum swing, precisely as it is stopped. Kinetic energy is greatest at the bottom of its swing as it is moving its fastest. Between the two points the energies are converting into one another.
What happens to the gravitational potential energy as the pendulum starts back up towards its highest point?
The pendulum's momentum or kinetic energy is converted to gravitational potential energy until all of the kinetic energy is converted. The pendulum stops.

A swinging pendulum is moving fastest at?
A swinging pendulum is moving fastest at the lowest point of its arc. That is the point where all its potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy, and it is the only point in a pendulum's arc where that happens. See related link (a simulation).

What happens to the total energy of the pendulums as it swings What determines the maximum total energy of the pendulum?
The total energy falls by a small amount which is used to overcome air resistance.
When a pendulum reaches the end of its swing the energy within the pendulum is ofwhat sort?
Potential energy
How does a pendulum work?
greetings.a pendulum has both kinetic and potential energy at one point.when the pendulum is at its highest point it has potential energy.it has kinetic energy when the ball of the pendulum is right in the middle.get it?
What energy does a swinging pendulum come from?

Describe the energy conversions that take place in the pendulum?
In a pendulum, the energy transformations involve potential energy being converted to kinetic energy as the pendulum swings back and forth. At the highest point of the swing, the pendulum has maximum potential energy, which is then converted to maximum kinetic energy at the lowest point of the swing. This process continues as the pendulum oscillates, with energy being continually converted between potential and kinetic forms.
