A simple pendulum is swinging in a vertical plane. The ratio of its potential energies when it is making angles300 and 600 with the vertical is,

a
1:(2 -√3)
b
(2 -√3):1
c
1 : 2
d
2 : 1

detailed solution

Correct option is B

h = l - l cosθP.E = mgh =mgl (1 - cos θ)PE1PE2=mgl1- cos300mgl1-cos600=1-3212=2-3
