Illustrate the law of conservation of energy by discussing the energy changes which occur when we draw a pendulumbob to one side and allow it to oscillate. Why does the bob eventually come to rest ? What happens to its energy eventually? Is it a violation of the law of conservation of energy?

Answer»

SOLUTION :When pendulum oscillates in extreme ends. There is a continuous EXCHANGE between potential energy and kinetic energy and the sum of TWO types of energy remain constant According to the LAW of CONSERVATION of energy. This is true in case there is no loss of energydue to external force.
