Hi, I am new in this forum.

I was trying to simulate a sphere hanging as a simple
pendulum.

1. I tried to use elastic rope with stiffness 10e6 and the sphere was bouncing all over the grid.

2. Then I made a thin beam as a sub-component of sphere and trying to use torsional spring as a pivot. Not sure how to locate the end positions of the spring since the buttons are not active.

I am using version 10.3.3

I will appreciate any help.
