Questions
The PE of a simple pendulum is maximum when it is :
a
at the turning points of the oscillation
b
at the equilibrium
c
in between the above two cases
d
at any position it has always a fixed value
detailed solution
Correct option is A
The potential energy of a simple pendulum is maximum at the highest vertical position compared to the equilibrium position. Hence maximum P.E. occurs at the turning points for the oscillation of the pendulum.Talk to our academic expert!
