AI Generated Solution

To solve the question regarding the positions of a simple pendulum where its potential energy (P.E.) is maximum and kinetic energy (K.E.) is zero, we can break it down into the following steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Motion of a Pendulum**: - A simple pendulum swings back and forth in a circular arc. It has two extreme positions (maximum displacement) and one mean position (equilibrium). 2. **Identifying Potential Energy**: ...
