A mass hanging from a pendulum at the end of a string of negligible mass. The string has a length of 0.84 m. With the string hanging vertically, the object is given an initial velocity of 1.4 m/s parallel to the ground and swings upward on a circular arc. Eventually, the object comes to a momentary halt at a point where the string makes an angle θ with its initial vertical orientation and then swings back downward. Find the angle θ.

Explanation:

tan(theta)=(v^2)/(length of string × g)

=(1.4^2)/(0.84 × 9.8m/s )

=1.96/(8.232)

=0.2380952381

theta=arctan(0.2380952381)

=13.4°
