Problem

A pendulum of length 1.0 m1.0\,\text{m} is released from rest after being pulled aside so that the string makes an angle of 30∘30^{\circ} with the vertical. Neglecting air resistance, find the speed of the 0.20 kg0.20\,\text{kg} bob as it passes through the lowest point. (a) 3.2 m s−13.2\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1} (b) 1.1 m s−11.1\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1} (c) 1.6 m s−11.6\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1} (d) 2.3 m s−12.3\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1}
