To solve the problem, we will use the principle of conservation of mechanical energy. The total mechanical energy of the pendulum bob remains constant as it swings, assuming there are no non-conservative forces acting on it (like air resistance or friction). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Initial and Final States**: - Initial state (lowest position): Speed \( v_1 = 3 \, \text{m/s} \) - Final state (at \( 60^\circ \) with the vertical): Speed \( v_2 \) (unknown) ...
