You wish to design a pendulum which moves a mass along an arc of length 40 cm when the angle with the vertical changes by 20 degrees. What should be the length L in meters of the pendulum? Enter the numerical answer without units. Your answer must be within 5% of the exact answer to receive credit.

The length of the pendulum cord is approximately 114.592 centimeters.

Explanation:

We include a representation of the motion of the pendulum in the image attached below. The trajectory described by the pendulum is represented by the following geometrical expression:

(1)

Where:

- Angular change with the vertical, measured in radians.

- Length of the pendulum cord, measured in centimeters.

- Arc, measured in centimeters.

If we know that and , then the length of the pendulum cord is.

The length of the pendulum cord is approximately 114.592 centimeters.

energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means. do not understand what you are asking but hope this
