Serway & Jewett β€” Conservation of Energy: Problem 5

A light, rigid rod is 77.0 cm long. Its top end is pivoted on a frictionless, horizontal axle. The rod hangs straight down at rest with a small, massive ball attached to its bottom end. You strike the ball, suddenly giving it a horizontal velocity so that it swings around in a full circle. What minimum speed at the bottom is required to make the ball go over the top of the circle?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 77.0 cm

This problem covers key concepts in Conservation of Energy from Physics for Scientists and Engineers 10th Edition by Serway & Jewett.
