The figure shows a ball with mass m = 0.354 kg attached to the end of a thin rod with length L = 0.597 m and negligible mass. The other end of the rod is pivoted so that the ball can move in a vertical circle. The rod is held horizontally as shown and then given enough of a downward push to cause the ball to swing down and around and just reach the vertically upward position, with zero speed there. How much work is done on the ball by the gravitational force from the initial point to (a) the lowest point, (b) the highest point, and (c) the point on the right level with the initial point? If the gravitational potential energy of the ball-Earth system is taken to be zero at the initial point, what is it when the ball reaches (d) the lowest point, (e) the highest point, and (f) the point on the right level with the initial point? (a) Number Units (b) Number Units (c) Number Units (d) Number Units (e) Number Units (f) Number Units

The length of a simple pendulum is 0.85 m and the mass of the particle (the "bob") at the end of the cable is 0.22 kg. The pendulum is pulled away from its equilibrium position by an angle of 8.1∘ and released from rest. Assume that friction can be neglected and that the resulting oscillatory motion is simple harmonic motion. (a) What is the angular frequency of the motion? (b) Using the position of the bob at its lowest point as the reference level, determine the total mechanical energy of the pendulum as it swings back and forth. (c) What is the bob's speed as it passes through the lowest point of the swing? (a) Number Units (b) Number Units (c) Number Units
