$A$ bob of mass $m$ is suspended at a point $O$ by a light string of length $l$ and is set to perform vertical circular motion as shown in the figure. Initially,by applying a horizontal velocity $v_0$ at point $A$,the string becomes slack when the bob reaches point $D$. The ratio of the kinetic energy of the bob at points $B$ and $C$ is:
