Which statement CORRECTLY describes the energy transformation as the pendulum swings from point A to point B? A

The kinetic energy of the pendulum is highest when the washer is at point A and decreases to a minimum at point B.

B

The potential energy of the pendulum is highest when the washer is at point A and decreases to a minimum at point B.

C

The kinetic energy of the pendulum remains the same as it moves between the two points labeled A.

D

The potential energy of the pendulum remains the same as it moves between the two points labeled A.

Attach the free body diagram and i will you answer the question.! : d

Ibelieve the answer is d. densityhope my answer has you : )

Ithink it's  c. i'm sure 

The figure is missing but we can answer anyway.the correct answer is "releasing the string". in fact, when the person is holding the bow and the arrow, the kinetic energy of the arrow is still zero (because the arrow is not moving). the moment the arrow is released, it acquires a velocity v, so its kinetic energy will become different from zero: where m is the mass of the arrow and v its velocity.  all the other options, instead, do not increase the kinetic energy of the system: -  pulling farther back on the string : this will just increase the elastic potential energy of the system-  holding the arrow higher: this will increase the gravitational potential energy of the system (which is given by u=mgh, where h is the height above the ground)-  decreasing the mass of the arrow: this will decrease the gravitational potential energy of the system (which is given by u=mgh, where m is the mass)
