Question

Within a pendulum, as kinetic energy decreases, potential energy _____.

a. increases
b. decreases
c. stays constant

Answer 1

Answer: a

Increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple pendulum motion obeys law of conservative of energy. Where at maximum K.E, P.E = 0 and vice versa.

Also, increase in K.E will lead to decrease in P.E and vice versa.
