A 52 cm long thin string is attached to a 25 g mass. You bring the mass up until you make a 4.2◦ angle with respect to the equilibrium position and let go. You start the timer when the simple pendula has a 2.1◦ angle with respect to the equilibrium position. (a) What are the equations for the position, velocity, and acceleration of the system? (b) Using your equations, determine what the three will equal at the instant you let go, and 3.0 s after you let go. Assume no damping occurs.
