MCQ
The velocity of simple pendulum is maximum at
- AExtremes
- BHalf displacement
- ✓Mean position
- DEvery where
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Mean position
c
(c) The velocity of bob is zero at extreme position whereas
(c) The velocity of bob is zero at extreme position whereas
The velocity of bob is maximum at mean position
$K E=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}$
So $K E$ is maximum at mean position because velocity is maximum at mean position
