$A$ body of mass $m$ moves in a circle of radius $r$ with a constant speed $V$. $A$ force of $mV^2/r$ acts towards the center of the circle. Find the work done by this force when the body covers half the circumference of the circle.

  • A
    $(mV^2/r) \pi r$
  • B
    Zero
  • C
    $mV^2/r^2$
  • D
    $\pi r^2/mV^2$
