The angular velocity and the amplitude of a simple pendulum are $\omega$ and $A$ respectively. At a displacement $x$ from the mean position,its kinetic energy is $T$ and potential energy is $V$. Then the ratio $\frac{V}{T}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{x^2}{A^2 - x^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{A^2 - x^2}{x^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{x^2 \omega^2}{A^2 - x^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{A^2 - x^2}{x^2 \omega^2}$

$A$ simple pendulum with a bob of mass $m$ oscillates from $A$ to $C$ and back to $A$ such that $PB$ is $H$. If the acceleration due to gravity is $g$,then the velocity of the bob as it passes through $B$ is

$A$ cylindrical cork of uniform density floats in a liquid of density $\rho_1$. If the cork is depressed slightly and released, it oscillates harmonically with time period $T$. If the same cork floats in another liquid of density $\rho_2$, then the similar oscillation has time period $2T$. The value of $\rho_2/\rho_1$ is :
