$A$ particle of mass $m$ is fixed to one end of a light spring having force constant $k$ and unstretched length $\ell$. The other end is fixed. The system is given an angular speed $\omega$ about the fixed end of the spring such that it rotates in a circle in gravity-free space. Then the stretch in the spring is

  • A
    $\frac{m \ell \omega^{2}}{k+m \omega^{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{m \ell \omega^{2}}{k-m \omega^{2}}$
  • C
    $\frac{m \ell \omega^{2}}{k-m \omega}$
  • D
    $\frac{m \ell \omega^{2}}{k+m \omega}$
