Derivation of Pendulum equations method 3

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the equations of motion for a pendulum using energy methods. It introduces the pendulum setup, discusses the concept of mechanical energy, and explores different ways to view kinetic energy, including translational and rotational perspectives. The tutorial then presents a unique approach by considering the center of mass as the rotation center, leading to a complex derivation of the pendulum's equation of motion. The video concludes with the final solution, demonstrating that different methods yield the same result.
