A pendulum has a velocity of 2.5 m/s at the bottom of its swing. Using the law of conservation of energy, what is the maximum height of the pendulum's swing if there is no friction acting on it?

The maximum height of the pendulum's swing is 0.32 m

Explanation:

The Principle Of Conservation Of Mechanical Energy

In the absence of friction, the total mechanical energy is conserved. That means that

Em=U+K is constant, being U the potential energy and K the kinetic energy

U=mgh

At the bottom of the swing, the pendulum has zero potential energy but its kinetic energy is at maximum. At the top of the swing, the pendulum has zero kinetic energy and the potential energy is at maximum.

Thus, applying the principle of conservation of mechanical energy:

Simplifying by m:

Solving for h:

Substituting:

h = 0.32 m

The maximum heigth of the pendulum's swing is 0.32 m

explanation:

earth's surface is mainly heated by the absorption of infrared radiation from the sun.

evaporation occurs because molecules in liquid water are warmed ( usually by the sun) and vibrate quicker, becoming less dense and rise.

condensation occurs because molecules in water vapor are cooled and therefore vibrate more slowly thus becoming more dense and eventually fall to earth.

lines of equal barometric pressure on a weather map are called: isobars : lines of equal temp on a weather map are called: isotherms.​

answer: a. same unit
