A simple pendulum is released from A as shown. If m and l represent the mass of the bob and length of the pendulum, the gain in kinetic energy at B is

           

  • mgl2

  • mgl2

  • 32 mgl

  • 23 mgl


C.

32 mgl

Loss of potential energy in coming from A to B

         = mgh = mgl cos 30°

         = 32 mgl

     

Kinetic energy gained = loss of potential energy

                                = 32 mgl
