Question
A thin rod of length 0.926 m and mass 174 g is
suspended freely from one end. It is pulled to one
side and then allowed to swing like a pendulum,
passing through its lowest position with angular
speed 1.49 rad/s. Neglecting friction and air
resistance, find (a) the rod's kinetic energy at its
lowest position and (b) how far above that position
the center of mass rises.
