The work done by the string of a simple pendulum during one complete oscillation is equal to (1) Total energy of the pendulum (2) Kinetic energy of the pendulum (3) Potential energy of the pendulum (4) Zero

1 Answer

Answer :

(4) Zero Explanation: Work done by the string of the simple pendulum during one complete oscillation is zero. Tension in the string exactly cancels the component parallel to the string. This leaves a net restoring force back toward the equilibrium position as equal to zero.
