$A$ body of mass $200 \text{ g}$ is tied to a spring of spring constant $12.5 \text{ N/m}$,while the other end of the spring is fixed at point '$O$'. If the body moves about '$O$' in a circular path on a smooth horizontal surface with a constant angular speed of $5 \text{ rad/s}$,then the ratio of the extension in the spring to its natural length will be:

  • A
    $1:2$
  • B
    $1:1$
  • C
    $2:3$
  • D
    $2:5$
