In what position of the pendulum is the greatest potential energy? lowest potential? the greatest kinetic? the smallest kinetic?
The maximum potential energy at the moment of maximum deviation of the pendulum from the equilibrium position (amplitude), the minimum when the pendulum is in the minimum deviation from equilibrium.
The maximum kinetic energy (and hence the maximum instantaneous velocity) is achieved when the pendulum reaches an equilibrium position after it is deflected from it and released into free motion. Minimum kinetic energy in two cases:
a) if the pendulum is in equilibrium and does not move;
b) if the pendulum is deflected from the equilibrium position to the maximum amplitude.
One of the components of a person's success in our time is receiving modern high-quality education, mastering the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for life in society. A person today needs to study almost all his life, mastering everything new and new, acquiring the necessary professional qualities.
