Step-by-step explanation:

the simple pendulum system undergoes a simple harmonic motion in which at the equilibrium position,it kinetic energy is maximum making the potential energy to be zero but when the pendulum is at it extreme position,the P.E becomes max while the K.E becomes min.At the equilibrium position velocity is very high
