Question

A mass of M kg  is suspended by a weight less string the horizontal force that requires to displace it until the string making an angle 45° with the initial vertical direction is 

Moderate
Solution

 

 work done by horizontal force is W= F×sin45° 
           Work done by horizontal force =F2---------(1)
          gain in PE of pendulum = Mgh PE=Mg(cos45°) PE=Mg(1-12)
             PE =Mg  (212)-----------(2)
        substitute equation (1) in (2)    F2  =   Mg(212)
             F    =    Mg(21)
