Two stones of masses $m$ and $3m$ are whirled in horizontal circles,the heavier one in a radius of $(r/3)$ and the lighter one in a radius of $r$. The tangential speed of the lighter stone is $n$ times that of the heavier stone when they experience the same centripetal force. The value of $n$ is:

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $4$
