Thanks. I ended up finding the x-component of the Tension Force, and used it to find the acceleration in the x-direction. From there I used the centripetal acceleration to get about 1.004 m/s for the speed.
Homework Statement
The pendulum is swinging at an angle of 25.5 degrees (with respect to the vertical)
The mass of the object is 14.6 kg
Length of String is .5 m
Find the velocity (v = ?)
