What happens to the height the pendulum reaches when the mass of the projectile increase? What happens to the height the pendulum reaches if the mass of the pendulum increases? What happens to the height the pendulum reaches if the speed of the projectile increases?
Added by Antonia M.
Step 1
If the mass of the projectile increases, the height the pendulum reaches will also increase. This is because a heavier projectile will transfer more momentum to the pendulum, causing it to swing higher. Show more…
