A pendulum is designed to transfer potiential gravitational energy into?

A pendulum transfers potential gravitational energy (at the top of its swing) to kinetic energy (movement at the bottom of the swing) and then back again (at the top on the other side).


Which swing more heavier pendulum or lighter pendulum?

A heavier pendulum will swing longer due to its greater inertia.

What happens to the path of a pendulum over a day?

if the pendulum is free to swing in any direction (not constrained to a single plane, as is the pendulum in a pendulum clock), this is called a Foucault pendulum, and each swing will be slightly offset from the previous one due to the rotation of the Earth. If you were to attach a pen to the bottom of a Foucault pendulum, over the course of time it would make a tremendously complicated spirograph pattern.


What kind of pendulum is playground swing?

A simple pendulum.


Where is a pendulum the fastest?

At the bottom of it's motion because the gravitational potential energy is zero


How can you make a pendulum to swing faster?

If the pendulum was pushed with a large force or if it was heavier. It might swing faster.


What happens to acceleration of pendulum at its lowest point of its swing?

The acceleration of a pendulum is zero at the lowest point of its swing.


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.


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 can make the pendulum swing faster?

By shorten the string of the pendulum


Where will you locate on a pendulum or roller coaster the greatest potential and greatest kinetic energy?

On a pendulum, the greatest potential energy is at the highest point of the swing on either side, and the greatest kinetic energy is at the bottom of the swing. On a roller coaster, the greatest potential energy is at the top of a hill, and the greatest kinetic energy is at the bottom of the hill.
