While you have your pendulum from the last activity set

Chapter 5, Problem 5.92

(choose chapter or problem)

While you have your pendulum from the last activity set up, predict what will happen in the following situation and then test your guess: When a pendulum is released from a given height, it swings to the same height at the other end of its arc as you noted above. However, suppose you place a meterstick across the door opening such that the pendulum string strikes the stick about halfway up the string when it moves through the opening. How high will the ball swing in this case? Will it return to the same height as that at which it started, swing to a lower height, or swing to a greater height? Explain your answer.
