95. A pendulum is made from a 7.50-kilogram mass
attached to a rope connected to the ceiling of a
gymnasium. The mass is pushed to the side until it is at
position A, 1.5 meters higher than its equilibrium
position. After it is released from rest at position A, the
pendulum moves freely back and forth between
positions A and B, as shown in the diagram below.
What is the total amount of kinetic energy that the mass
has as it swings freely through its equilibrium position?
[Neglect friction.]
A) 11 J
B) 94 J
C) 110 J D) 920 J

D) 3100 J
97. A ball is thrown vertically upward. As the ball rises, its
total energy (neglecting friction)
A) decreases
C) remains the same
B) increases

of the hill. [Show all work, including the equation and substitution with units.]
Base your answers to questions 101 and 102 on the
information below.
A 65-kilogram pole vaulter wishes to vault to a
height of 5.5 meters.

vaulter needs to reach this height if air friction is
neglected and all the vaulting energy is derived from
kinetic energy. [Show all work, including the equation
and substitution with units.]
102. Calculate the speed the vaulter must attain to have the
necessary kinetic energy. [Show all work, including
the equation and substitution with units.]
