Homework Statement
A 2kg pendulum bob on a string 2 meters long is released with a velocity of 1.5 meters/second when the support string makes an angle of 30 degrees with the vertical. What is the tangential acceleration of the bob at the highest point of its motion? The answer was given as 5.77 meters/second squared so I know that that is the answer but it's getting to that number that is giving me tons of trouble.
Homework Equations
Tangential acceleration = r(delta omega/change in time)
