The energy of a pendulum is recorded at different positions in the table below. Use the data in the table to determine the amount of kinetic energy the pendulum had at Position 2. dude i will give yall brainlest

36.55 J

Explanation:

PE = Potential energy

KE = Kinetic energy

TE = Total energy

The following data were obtained from the question:

Position >> PE >>>>> KE >>>>>> TE

1 >>>>>>>> 72.26 >> 27.74 >>>> 100

2 >>>>>>>> 63.45 >> x >>>>>>>> 100

3 >>>>>>>> 58.09 >> 41.91 >>>>> 100

The kinetic energy of the pendulum at position 2 can be obtained as follow:

From the table above, at position 2,

Potential energy (PE) = 63.45 J

Kinetic energy (KE) = unknown = x

Total energy (TE) = 100 J

TE = PE + KE

100 = 63.45 + x

Collect like terms

100 – 63.45 = x

x = 36.55 J

Thus, the kinetic energy of the pendulum at position 2 is 36.55 J.
