The energy of a photon is equal to the kinetic energy of a
proton. The energy of the photon is E. Let $ \lambda_1 $ be the
de-Broglie wavelength of the proton and $ \lambda_2 $ be the
wavelength of the photon. The ratio $ \frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} $
is proportional to
- $ E^0 $
- $ E^{\frac{1}{2}} $
- $ E^{-1} $
- $ E^{-2} $
The Correct Option is B

A bob of mass \(m\) is suspended at a point \(O\) by a light string of length \(l\) and left to perform vertical motion (circular) as shown in the figure. Initially, by applying horizontal velocity \(v_0\) at the point ‘A’, the string becomes slack when the bob reaches at the point ‘D’. The ratio of the kinetic energy of the bob at the points B and C is:

Kinetic energy
Kinetic energy of an object is the measure of the work it does as a result of its motion. Kinetic energy is the type of energy that an object or particle has as a result of its movement. When an object is subjected to a net force, it accelerates and gains kinetic energy as a result. Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle defined by both its mass and its velocity. Any combination of motions is possible, including translation (moving along a route from one spot to another), rotation around an axis, vibration, and any combination of motions.
