What is the kinetic energy of a pendulum that has 0 potential energy at the bottom of the swing?
I'm not sure if this helps in any way, but i do know that with a pendulum, the height it goes on one side is the exact height it goes on the other so if you held it up say 30cm on one side and let it swing it would reach 30cm on the other!!!!
i thought that was pretty cool anyways- sorry i couldn't help further xxx :)
What else can I help you with?
Why is the kinectic energy of a pendulum is greater at the bottom of its swing?
The kinetic energy is greater at the bottom of the swing because the pendulum is moving fastest at that point. As the pendulum swings down, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, resulting in increased speed at the bottom.
How is energy converted as a pendulum swing?
In a pendulum, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the bob swings down. At the bottom of the swing, the kinetic energy is at its peak while potential energy is at its lowest. As the pendulum swings back up, this kinetic energy is then converted back into potential energy before the process repeats.
When you were holding the pendulum at the far end what kind of energy does it possess?
At this point, at the top of the swing, the pendulum has potential energy. As it drops it loses potential and gains kinetic energy. At the fastest point, as the pendulum reached the bottom of the swing, it has kinetic energy. It then loses kinetic energy and gains potential energy as it swings up to the other side.
What is the potential energy of a pendulum bob when it has a maximum kinetic energy?
When a pendulum bob has a maximum kinetic energy, all of the potential energy has been converted to kinetic energy. Therefore, the potential energy of the pendulum bob is zero at that point.
How many joules of kinetic energy does the pendulum have when it has 100 J of potential energy?
Assuming there is no loss of energy due to friction or other factors, all 100 J of potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy when the pendulum reaches the bottom of its swing, so it will have 100 J of kinetic energy.

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.

What energy goes in and out of a pendulum?
In a pendulum, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the pendulum swings back and forth. When the pendulum reaches the highest point in its swing, it has maximum potential energy; as it moves downward, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. At the lowest point, the pendulum has maximum kinetic energy. This energy conversion continues throughout the pendulum's motion.
Where is a pendulum the fastest?
A pendulum is fastest at the lowest point of its swing, where its kinetic energy is maximum. At this point, all the potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy, resulting in the highest speed of the pendulum.
When a pendulum is at the center position what is true of the kinetic and potential energy?
If a pendulum is at its center position, then there are two possibilities: 1). It may be swinging. Then its kinetic energy is maximum and its potential energy is zero. 2). It may be stopped altogether. Then it has no energy at all.
The potential energy of a pendulum is least?
At the highest point of its swing where its kinetic energy is least and potential energy is maximum.
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?
Describe the energy conversions that take place in the pendulum?
At the start of a swing the pendulum has lots of potential energy but no kinetic energy. As it moves downwards the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. In the upswing the kinetic energy is converted back into potential energy. Some of the energy is converted into heat by friction which is why the pendulum slows down.
