One end of string of length l is connected to a particle of mass m and the other end is connected to a small peg on a smooth horizontal table. If the particle moves in circle with speed v, the net force on the particle (directed towards centre) will be ( 
represents the tension in the string)
A
B
C
zero
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
: Centripetal force 
is provided by tension so net force on the particle will be equal to tension
