What energy occur as a pendulum swings?

There is Mechanical Energy. This Mechanical Energy equals Potential + Kinetic Energies. At the maximum heigh and with the pendulum set still there is the maximum Potential Energy (so Kinetic equals 0, and Potential Energy equals Mechanical Energy). When we release the pendulum this Potential Energy transforms into Kinetic Energy which will be maximum and equal to the Mechanical Energy when the 'rope' or 'string' that holds the pendulum is in the same direction as the acceleration, or force, in this case gravity. Then, and if there is no friction (e.g. air) the pendulum will reach the same maximum heigh that it had in X0 and the Kinetic Energy will transform into Potential, reinitiating the process but in the opposite direction. Hope i helped and sorry for my english. :)


Are mechanical energy and work the same thing?

A1 Mechanical energy is energy produce from raw materials which are burnt, such as oil, work is the use of energy ehich may be mechanical, or physical, which means the use of foods to produce energy which is then used for work, so no, they are not the same thing A2 Energy and work have the same units, ie Joules in the SI system, and the dimensions are Force x Distance, or Newtons x Meters. I always think of work as the use of energy. Thus for example you release energy from a fuel such as gasoline by burning it, and use this energy to do work, ie propelling a car.
