Apendulum is constructed from a 5.9 kg mass attached to a strong cord of length 1.6 m also attached to a ceiling. originally hanging vertically, the mass is pulled aside a small distance of 7.1 cm and released from rest. while the mass is swinging the cord exerts an almost-constant force on it. for this problem, assume the force is constant as the mass swings. how much work in j does the cord do to the mass as the mass swings a distance of 8.0 cm?

Work done is zero

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the pendulum, m = 5.9 kg

Length of the cord, l = 1.6 m

Distance moved by the mass, x = 7.1 cm = 0.071 m

Now,

To calculate the work done when the displacement of the mass is 8 cm:

Work done is given by the formula:

W =

Also, we know that in simple pendulum, the force due to the string reamins perpendicular to the displacement of the mass from the mean position.

Thus

Therefore, the work done is zero.

i had this question and the answer was 3.15 miles.
