(c) A metal ball hangs from a long thread and acts as a pendulum when moved. The ball is pulled to one side from its rest position by 0.050 m and released. The ball performs simple harmonic motion with a period of 2.20 s. i. Define simple harmonic motion. ii. Calculate the maximum acceleration of the ball. iii. Calculate the displacement of the ball after 3.05 s. The equation for an object released from its amplitude and left to swing is x = Acos(wt).
(d) (e) i. ii. State the point on the ball's motion where it experiences:- Its maximum acceleration. Its maximum kinetic energy. Calculate the maximum kinetic energy of the ball if the ball has a mass of 0.060 kg.
