B Position B
C Kinetic energy is the same at all positions.
D Position A
Show Worked Solution

Worked Solution

Step 1: Potential energy is highest at the highest points (A and C). Step 2: As the bob swings down, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Step 3: At the lowest point (B), potential energy is at its minimum and kinetic energy is at its maximum.

Correct answer: Position B
