    A bob of mass ' mm ' is suspended by a light string of length ' LL '. It is imparted a minimum horizontal velocity at the lowest point A such that it just completes half circle reaching the top most position B. The ratio of kinetic energies ( K.E. )A( K.E. )B\frac{(\text{~K.E.~})_{A}}{(\text{~K.E.~})_{B}} is:
