The derived frequency equals 2.63 Hz. Explanation: For an object weighing 8.0 kg with a spring stretching 3.6 cm, calculations involving the spring constant and oscillation frequency lead to this specific oscillation rate.
Answer:
All three pendulums will have the same angular frequencies.
Explanation:
For a simple pendulum, the time period using the approximation
is expressed as:

The angular frequency
is defined as

Since the angular frequency remains unaffected by the initial angle (valid strictly for small angle approximations), we deduce that the angular frequencies of the three pendulums are identical.
<span>A centripetal force maintains an object's circular motion. When the ball is at the highest point, we can assume that the ball's speed v is such that the weight of the ball matches the required centripetal force to keep it moving in a circle. Hence, the string will not become slack.
centripetal force = weight of the ball
m v^2 / r = m g
v^2 / r = g
v^2 = g r
v = sqrt { g r }
v = sqrt { (9.80~m/s^2) (0.7 m) }
v = 2.62 m/s
Thus, the minimum speed for the ball at the top position is 2.62 m/s.</span>
