A body of mass $m$ hangs at one end of a string of length $l$, the other end of which is fixed. It is given a horizontal velocity so that the string would just reach where it makes an angle of $60^o$ with the vertical. The tension in the string at mean position is

  • A

    $2\,mg$

  • B

    $mg$

  • C

    $3\,mg$

  • D

    $\sqrt3\, mg$
