Which of the following physical laws or principles can best be used to analyze the collision between the object and the pendulum bob? Which can best be used to analyze the resulting swing? 1. Newton's first law 2. Newton's second law 3. Newton's third law 4. Conservation of mechanical energy 5. Conservation of momentum

4,5

Explanation:

The resulting swing converts potential energy to kinetic energy and kinetic energy to potential energy when the swinging stops. This is line with the law of conservation of mechanical energy which deals with inter conversion of energy forms and energy not being able to get lost.

The conservation of momentum is most suited to the collision. This law states that when a collision occurs the initial momentum before and after the collision is the same(without any external force).

a.

explanation:

wavelength divides in half and speed stays the same.
