Conservation of Energy: Pendulum Dynamics

This lecture covers the conservation of energy principle applied to the dynamics of a simple pendulum, analyzing the interplay between kinetic and potential energy. It explores the observation of energy conservation in different scenarios, such as small and large oscillations, and the implications of energy transformations. The lecture delves into the mathematical expressions of energy conservation, highlighting the significance of potential energy in the system. Various forms of energy are discussed, including kinetic, gravitational, elastic potential, and electrical potential energy.
