$A$ stone is tied to a string of length $L$ and is whirled in a vertical circle with the other end of the string at the centre. At a certain instant of time, the stone is at its lowest position and has a speed $u$. The magnitude of the change in its velocity as it reaches a position where the string is horizontal is

  • A
    $u-\sqrt{u^{2}-2 g L}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2gL}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{u^{2}-gL}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{2(u^{2}-gL)}$
