JEE Main Physics question
A simple pendulum oscillates in a vertical plane. When it passes through the mean position, the tension in the string is 3 times the weight of the pendulum bob. What is the maximum displacement of the pendulum with respect to the vertical?
Answer: (D)
Solution
At the mean position, T-mg=mv^2/l=3mg-mg=2mg\Rightarrow v^2=2gl. From energy
