(a)

The displacement of the bob of the pendulum is .

The equation represents the damped motion of the object.

The displacement by an oscillating object from rest position at time  is

.

Compare the displacement equation with the above equation.

Here, Damping factor is .

Mass of the bob: .

Mass of the bob is .

(b)

Find Initial displacement of the bob.

Substitute  in the displacement equation.

The negative sign indicates the displacement to the left of the resting position.

Initial displacement of the bob is .

(c)

The function is .

and gives the path of motion.

Note: The blue color in the graph indicates the motion of the function.

(d)

Find displacement at the start of second oscillation.

Time period of the function is .

Here 

The second oscillation starts at .

Substitute  in the displacement equation.

The negative sign indicates the displacement to the left of the rest position.

Displacement at the start of second oscillation is  from the left of the rest position.

(e)

Displacement of the bob as time increases without bound( t tends to infinity).

Displacement of the bob decreases and gets closer to as time increases without bound.
