| Q. |
The work done by the string of a simple pendulum during one complete oscillation is equal to |
| A. | Total energy of the pendulum |
| B. | Kinetic energy of the pendulum |
| C. | Potential energy of the pendulum |
| D. | Zero |
| Answer» D. 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. |
