$A$ particle is in uniform circular motion. The equation of its trajectory is given by $(x-2)^2+y^2=25$,where $x$ and $y$ are in meters. The speed of the particle is $2 \text{ m/s}$. When the particle attains the lowest $y$ coordinate,the acceleration of the particle is (in $\text{m/s}^2$):

  • A
    $0.4 \hat{j}$
  • B
    $0.8 \hat{i}$
  • C
    $0.8 \hat{j}$
  • D
    $0.4 \hat{i}$
