A Foucault pendulum is designed to demonstrate the effect of the Earth’s rotation. A Foucault pendulum displayed in a museum is typically quite long, making the effect easier to see. Consider a Foucault pendulum of length 15 m with a 110-kg brass bob. It is set to swing with an amplitude of 3.5°.

a) What is the period of the pendulum?


b) What is the maximum kinetic energy of the pendulum?


c) What is the maximum speed of the pendulum?
