One end of a string of length $l$ is connected to a particle of mass $m$ and the other to a small peg on a smooth horizontal table. If the particle moves in a circle with speed $v$,the net force on the particle (directed towards the centre) is ($T$ is the tension in the string).

  • A
    $T$
  • B
    $T - \frac{m v^{2}}{l}$
  • C
    $T + \frac{m v^{2}}{l}$
  • D
    zero
