A pendulum has a length 1 m and a mass 1 kg. Assume Earth free fall acceleration equal to 10 m/s^2. When the pendulum oscillates, the maximal deflection angle is +/- 1 degree.
a) Sketch the kinetic energy as a function of time between t =0 and t = 10.
b) Sketch the total energy = kinetic energy + potential energy between t=0 and t = 10.
c)
Suppose the pendulum started losing energy at the rate 1% per period. As a result, the energy of the pendulum drops according to E(t) = E(t=0)*exp(-z*t). Let’s call z damping constant, it has units 1/sec.
Find z.
d) Sketch E(t) for the time span of a few hundred periods.

A plane pendulum of length L and mass m is suspended from a
block of mass M. The block moves without friction and is
constrained to move horizontally only (i.e. along the x axis). You
may assume all motion is confined to the xy plane. At t = 0, both
masses are at rest, the block is at
