Linear Momentum

A simple pendulum is formed of a solid (S1), of mass, $m_1=200g$ suspended from the end of a light and inextensible string of length. The other end of the string is fixed to a support.
The pendulum is shifted by an angle $\theta=30^{\degree}$ from its equilibrium position and released from rest. The string is still stretched.
The horizontal plane passing through O is taken as a gravitational potential energy reference.
Neglect friction and take g=10m.s-2.

determine the speed of (S1) at O.
