$A$ frictionless wire $AB$ is fixed on a sphere of radius $R$. $A$ very small spherical ball slips on this wire. The time taken by this ball to slip from $A$ to $B$ is

  • A
    $\frac{2\sqrt{gR}}{g\cos\theta}$
  • B
    $2\sqrt{gR} \cdot \frac{\cos\theta}{g}$
  • C
    $2\sqrt{\frac{R}{g}}$
  • D
    $\frac{gR}{\sqrt{g\cos\theta}}$
