- Refer to the diagram of a swinging pendulum below and indicate the point(s) where the acceleration is 0 and where the acceleration is highest. Also indicate whe re the speed is 0 and maximum.
- Run the pendulum simulation and verify your results for question 1 . Briefly explain in your own words why the pendulum oscillates.
- According to the simulation, where is the kinetic energy highest? Please explain why that is so given your answers to the previous questions.
- Write the equation for the pendulum’s period T. What characteristic(s) of the equipment affect the period? Verify your result; change the variables in the simulation and note any change (or not) in the oscillation period.
- Briefly explain why a pendulum makes a good clock.
