physics questions p5?
Final review, anything you can answer will be great. I know some questions are easy, but hey, its fun (my final post).
Thank you very much,

63a) Period = 2pi√(l/g)
P = 2pi√(2.23/9.8)
P = 2.99722 ~= 2.99
63b)
Total energy = kinetic energy at the bottom OR potential energy at the max position. We don't know maximum height so let's find kinetic energy at the bottom.
KE = (mv^2)/2
KE = 6.74*(2.06^2)/2
KE = 14.3009 J
63c)
You know kinetic energy at bottom = potential energy at the top.
14.3009 = m*g*(vertical height)
14.3009 = 6.74 * 9.8 * h
h = 0.2151
h = position at the bottom - vertical component of string at the top
0.2151 = 2.23 - 2.23*cos(θ)
cos(θ) = 0.90291
arccos(0.90291) = 25.4567 DEGREES

first. your previous question took a LOT of time. So will be brief this time. a) T = 2*pi() * sqrt( L/g). b) Ek = 1/2 m v^2 c) mgh = Ek but h = L*(1-sin(theta) ) = L *(1-theta) for small angles -> theta = 1-( Ek/(MgL) )
