Asked by Mary
At a low point in its swing, a pendulum bob with a mass of 0.2kg has a velocity of 4m/s. Ignoring air resistance, how high will the bob swing above the low point before reversing direction?
Please explain and show work.

It can gain potential energy equal to the kinetic energy at the bottom of the swing.
M g H = (M/2) V^2
H = V^2/(2*g)
You don't need to know the mass.
M g H = (M/2) V^2
H = V^2/(2*g)
You don't need to know the mass.
