At which point in this system does the pendulum bob demonstrate minimum potential energy?

A.
1

B.
2

C.
3

D.
4

Answer 1

The image is not provided, so it is difficult to determine the specific points of the system. However, in a typical pendulum system, the bob would demonstrate minimum potential energy at point 2, when it is at its lowest point in its swing. Therefore, the correct answer would be B. 2.
