Problem

A pendulum bob of mass 0.20 kg0.20\,\text{kg} is pulled aside so that it is 0.50 m0.50\,\text{m} higher than its lowest position and released from rest. At the lowest point the bob enters a 0.30 m0.30\,\text{m} long rough segment where a constant frictional force of 0.40 N0.40\,\text{N} acts on it. Find the speed of the bob immediately after it leaves the rough segment.
