Two masses $M$ and $m$ are attached to a vertical axis by weightless threads of combined length $l$. They are set in rotational motion in a horizontal plane about this axis with constant angular velocity $\omega$. If the tensions in the threads are the same during motion,the distance of $M$ from the axis is

  • A
    $\frac{Ml}{M + m}$
  • B
    $\frac{ml}{M + m}$
  • C
    $\frac{M + m}{M}l$
  • D
    $\frac{M + m}{m}l$
