$A$ simple pendulum with a bob of mass $m$ and length $x$ is held in position at an angle $\theta_1$ and then at an angle $\theta_2$ with the vertical. When released from these positions,the speeds with which it passes the lowest position are $v_1$ and $v_2$ respectively. Then,the ratio $\frac{v_1}{v_2}$ is .............

$A$ cylindrical plastic bottle of negligible mass is filled with $310\, ml$ of water and left floating in a pond with still water. If pressed downward slightly and released,it starts performing simple harmonic motion at angular frequency $\omega$. If the radius of the bottle is $2.5\, cm$,then $\omega$ is close to ..... $rad\, s^{-1}$ (density of water $= 10^3\, kg/m^3$).

$A$ simple pendulum is suspended in a lift which is going up with an acceleration $5 \ m/s^2$. An electric field of magnitude $5 \ N/C$ and directed vertically upward is also present in the lift.
