Question

A small sphere with mass m is attached to a massless rod of length L that is pivoted at the top, forming a simple pendulum. The pendulum is pulled to one side so that the rod is at an angle from the vertical and released from rest. Part B: At this point, what is the linear acceleration of the sphere? Express your answer in terms of g.

Step 1

First, we need to find the gravitational force acting on the sphere. This is given by Fg = mg, where m is the mass of the sphere and g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2). Show more…
