A particle performs Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM). If its displacement from the mean position is half of its amplitude, the ratio of its kinetic energy to potential energy is:
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
In SHM, Total Energy (E) = 1/2 k A^2. Potential Energy (U) at displacement x is 1/2 k x^2. Kinetic Energy (K) is E - U = 1/2 k (A^2 - x^2). Given x = A/2. U = 1/2 k (A/2)^2 = 1/2 k (A^2 / 4) = E/4. Since total energy is conserved, K = E - E/4 = 3E/4. The ratio of Kinetic to Potential Energy (K:U) is (3E/4) / (E/4) = 3:1.

The process of emission of electrons from hot metal surface is called
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Thermionic emission: electrons emitted when metal heated to high temperature (e.g., filament in cathode ray tube). Photoelectric: light incident. Field emission: strong electric field. Secondary: bombardment by particles.
