Apendulum, comprising a light string of length l and a small sphere, swings in the vertical plane. the string hits a peg located a distance d below the point of suspension (fig. p8.68). (a) show that if the sphere is released from a height below that of the peg, it will return to this height after the string strikes the peg. (b) show that if the pendulum is released from rest at the horizontal position (u 5 908) and is to swing in a complete circle centered on the peg, the minimum value of d must be 3l/5.

the demonstrations are in the description.

Explanation:

First of all, reference is made to a picture that may be the one shown attached.

when the string hits the pin, the sphere will continue to swing to the right until a height h'.

a) Initially, the system has only potential energy because it is released with zero velocity from a height h.

if we consider that the system has no energy losses, then all that potential energy must be conserved. Thus, this energy is transformed in principle into kinetic energy and once the kinetic energy is maximum, it will be transformed again into potential energy.

The potential energy is given by:

E_p = mgh

As we can see, potential energy only depends on mass, height and gravity. Since mass and gravity are constant, then for potential energy to be conserved, heights must be the same.

b) the statement probably has a transcription error in question b. Corrected, it would look like:

Show that if the pendulum is released from the horizontal position (∡ = 90) and is to swing in a complete circle centered on the peg, the minimum value of d must be 3L/5.

podemos asumir que la altura cero está dada en el punto de reposo del péndulo, por lo cual la energía inicial (que es potencial) está dada por:

E_0=MGL

For the pendulum to swing, the tension must always be positive, and as a consequence, the centripetal force must be greater or at least equal to the weight. Mathematically

mV^2 /(L-d) = mg (1)

Where:

mV^2 /(L-d) It is the centripetal force that the sphere experiences.

Now, for the sphere to describe the circular motion, the minimum kinetic energy must be:

$\frac{mV^2}{2} = mgL-2mg(L-d)$ (2)

Then, replacing equation 1 in 2:

$\frac{mg(L-d)}{2} = mgL-2mg(L-d)$

Simplifying:

$L-2L+2d= \frac{L}{2} - \frac{d}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2}d= \frac{3}{2}L$

Which means

$d=\frac{3L}{5}$

Answer from: Quest

Is a vector quantity that refers to "the rate at which an object changes its position." imagine a person moving rapidly - one step forward and one step back - always returning to the original starting position. while this might result in a frenzy of activity, it would result in a zero velocity. because the person always returns to the original position, the motion would never result in a change in position. since velocity is defined as the rate at which the position changes, this motion results in zero velocity. if a person in motion wishes to maximize their velocity, then that person must make every effort to maximize the amount that they are displaced from their original position. every step must go into moving that person further from where he or she started. for certain, the person should never change directions and begin to return to the starting position.
