Three identical particles of mass $m$ are joined together by a thread as shown in the figure. All three particles are moving in a horizontal plane in a circle about the point $O$. If the velocity of the outermost particle is $v_0$,then the ratio of tensions in the three sections of the string is:

  • A
    $3:5:7$
  • B
    $3:4:5$
  • C
    $7:11:6$
  • D
    $3:5:6$
