Using the oscillating simple pendulum above, the maximum kinetic energy is obtained at
Answer Details
In a simple pendulum, kinetic energy is maximum at the lowest point (equilibrium position) where potential energy is minimum and speed is maximum.Here, Q is the control point (mean/equilibrium position), so maximum kinetic energy occurs at Q. At extremes P and S, kinetic energy is zero (velocity = 0). At R, it is between the extreme and the equilibrium.
