A pendulum consists of a small object called a bob hanging from a light cord of fixed length, with the top end of the cord fixed, as represented in Figure OQ5.6. The bob moves without friction, swinging equally high on both sides. It moves from its turning point A through point B and reaches its maximum speed at point C. (a) Of these points, is there a point where the bob has nonzero radial acceleration and zero tangential acceleration? If so, which point? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (b) Of these points, is there a point where the bob has nonzero tangential acceleration and zero radial acceleration? If so, which point? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (c) Is there a point where the bob has no acceleration? If so, which point? (d) Is there a point where the bob has both nonzero tangential and radial acceleration? If so, which point? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? Figure OQ5.6

Consider the observation that the acceleration due to the gravitational force acting on a mass around a host planet decreases with the square of the separation between the objects. We can ask ourselves: why is it still accurate to consider a gravitational acceleration value of 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}9.8s2m for all of our projectile motion problems and all of our gravitational potential energy from prior modules? Let's analyze a situation and justify this analysis method: consider an object being launched from ground level to an altitude of 10,000 meters, roughly the cruising altitude of most jet liners, and far above our everyday experiences on Earth's surface. Compare the gravitational acceleration of the object at Earth's surface (the radius of Earth is about r_E=6.37\times10^6mrE=6.37×106m) to the acceleration value at the 10,000 meter altitude by determining the following ratio: g10,000m/gsurface
