Answer:
Starting from left side:
Figure 4 is the largest
Figure 1,3 and 6 are at second
Figure 2 and 5 are the smallest
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy is the energy of an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field.The rank of the initial gravitational potential energy of the given pendulum is,
Gravitational potential energy is the energy of an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. It can be given as,
[tex]U=mgh[/tex]
Where m is the mass of the object, g is the gravitational field and h is the height of the object.
For figure 1 the mass of the body is 2 kg and the height of the body is 60 cm. Thus the gravitational potential energy is,
[tex]U_1=60\times2g\\ U_1=120g[/tex]
For figure 2 the mass of the body is 1 kg and the height of the body is 60 cm. Thus the gravitational potential energy is,
[tex]U_2=60\times1g\\ U_2=60g[/tex]
For figure 3 the mass of the body is 4 kg and the height of the body is 30 cm. Thus the gravitational potential energy is,
[tex]U_3=30\times4g\\ U_3=120g[/tex]
For figure 4 the mass of the body is 3 kg and the height of the body is 45 cm. Thus the gravitational potential energy is,
[tex]U_4=45\times3g\\ U_4=135g[/tex]
For figure 5 the mass of the body is 2 kg and the height of the body is 30 cm. Thus the gravitational potential energy is,
[tex]U_5=30\times2g\\ U_5=60g[/tex]
For figure 6 the mass of the body is 8 kg and the height of the body is 15 cm. Thus the gravitational potential energy is,
[tex]U_6=15\times8g\\ U_6=120g[/tex]
Thus the rank of the initial gravitational potential energy of the given pendulum is,
