Use the result of Problem 8 to find the value of θ'0, the initial velocity, that must be imparted to a pendulum at rest to make it approach (but not cross over) the apex of its motion. Take l = g for simplicity.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Therefore, the value of the initial velocity is θ'0=±2.

Step by step solution

01

General form

The Energy Integral Lemma:

Let y(t) be a solution to the differential equation y=fy, where f(y) is a continuous function that does not depend on y’ or the independent variable t. Let F(y) is an indefinite integral of fy, that is, fy=ddyFy. Then the quantity is Et:=12y't2-Fytconstant; i.e., ddtEt=0.

Change of angular momentum:

mâ„“2θ=-â„“³¾²µ²õ¾±²Ôθ…… (1)

Newton’s rotational law: The rate of change of angular momentum is equal to torque.

02

Prove the given equation.

Referring to Problem 8:12θ't2-gl³¦´Ç²õθ=constant …… (2)

To find the value of θ'0.

Given, l = g.

Let us take constant = k. Then,

12θ't2-³¦´Ç²õθ=k…… (3)

Let’s sayt=0andθmust be zero with some initial velocity,θ'0=θ0and t=πthe velocity of the pendulum must be zero. So,θ'π=0.

Now, implement the conditions.

Put t=0in equation (3).

role="math" localid="1664029463502" 12θ't2-³¦´Ç²õθ=k12θ'(0)2-cos(0)=k12θ0'2-1=k

Now, put t=Ï€.

12θ'π2-cosπ=kk=1

Then,

12θ0'2-1=kθ0'2=4θ0=±2

So, the initial velocity is θ'0=±2.
