$A$ particle of mass $m$ is rotating in a plane in a circular path of radius $r$. Its angular momentum is $L$. The centripetal force acting on the particle is:

  • A
    $\frac{L^2}{mr}$
  • B
    $\frac{L^2m}{r}$
  • C
    $\frac{L^2}{mr^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{L^2}{mr^3}$

$A$ smooth wire of length $2\pi r$ is bent into a circle and kept in a vertical plane. $A$ bead can slide smoothly on the wire. When the circle is rotating with angular speed $\omega$ about the vertical diameter $AB$,as shown in the figure,the bead is at rest with respect to the circular ring at position $P$ as shown. Then the value of $\omega^2$ is equal to
