An iron ball hangs from a 21.5-m steel cable and is used in the demolition of a building at a location where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.78 m/s2. The ball is swung outward from its equilibrium position for a distance of 4.20 m. Assuming the system behaves as a simple pendulum, find the maximum speed of the ball during its swing.
