A mass \(m\) moves in a circle on a smooth horizontal plane with velocity \(v_0\) at a radius \(R_0.\) The mass is attached to a string that passes through a smooth hole in the plane, as shown in the figure.
The tension in the string is increased gradually and finally, \(m\) moves in a circle of radius \(\frac{R_0}{2}.\) The final value of the kinetic energy is:
| 1. | \( m v_0^2 \) | 2. | \( \dfrac{1}{4} m v_0^2 \) |
| 3. | \( 2 m v_0^2 \) | 4. | \( \dfrac{1}{2} m v_0^2\) |
