In a simple pendulum, when it is at its extreme position then its energy is potential - due to its position from the reference point (mean point). When it is released from its extreme position then its P.E. is transferred into K.E. and it moves towards the mean position. At mean position, its P.E....

When it is released from its extreme position then its P.E. is transferred into K.E. and it moves towards the mean position. At mean position, its P.E. is converted into K.E. When it goes away from the mean position, K.E. is converted into P.E. At extreme position, all K.E. is converted into P.E. so total energy remains constant. read less
