What's the rotational velocity at the "peak" of the pendulum displacement?terryds said:also a rotational kinetic energy

I'm not quite sure. But, I think it will be v/rBystander said:What's the rotational velocity at the "peak" of the pendulum displacement?
Am I right ?

In your sketch, where the maximum displacement from the vertical is indicated to be sixty degrees, how fast is the pendulum moving?

Do you mean the velocity ?Bystander said:In your sketch, where the maximum displacement from the vertical is indicated to be sixty degrees, how fast is the pendulum moving?
I think it's 0 m/s since it has reached the amplitude.
Oh yeah.. Thank you for your answer.
I get it now.. Because the velocity is zero, so the rotational kinetic energy is zero !
