A bowling ball is attached to a 3.73-meter long cable and hung from the ceiling. The cable is kept taut and the ball is raised to an initial height of 1.73 meters above the classroom floor. It is released from rest and allowed to swing as a pendulum. Determine its speed (in m/s) when it is at a height of 1.19 meters above the floor. Answer: m/s (round to the nearest hundredth)

A pendulum consists of a small object hanging from the ceiling at the end of a string of negligible mass. The string has a length of 0.73 m. With the string hanging vertically, the object is given an initial velocity of 1.2 m/s parallel to the ground and swings upward in a circular arc. Eventually, the object comes to a momentary halt at a point where the string makes an angle ? with its initial vertical orientation and then swings back downward. Find the angle ?.

A pendulum consists of a small object hanging from the ceiling at the end of a string of negligible mass. The string has a length of 0.77 m. With the string hanging vertically, the object is given an initial velocity of 1.9 m/s parallel to the ground and swings upward in a circular arc. Eventually, the object comes to a momentary halt at a point where the string makes an angle θ with its initial vertical orientation and then swings back downward. Find the angle θ.
