$A$ line segment $AB$ of length $\lambda$ moves such that the points $A$ and $B$ remain on the periphery of a circle of radius $\lambda$. Then the locus of the point,that divides the line segment $AB$ in the ratio $2:3$,is a circle of radius

  • A
    $\frac{3}{5} \lambda$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{19}}{7} \lambda$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3} \lambda$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{19}}{5} \lambda$
