This time the pendulum is 2.37 m long. Suppose you start with the pendulum hanging vertically, at rest. You then give it a push so that it starts swinging with a speed of 2.64 m/s. What maximum angle (in degrees) will it reach, with respect to the vertical, before falling back down? 31.8 degrees 19.1 degrees 50.9 degrees 41.4 degrees
