$A$ small disc is placed on the top of a smooth hemisphere of radius $R$. The smallest horizontal velocity $V$ that should be imparted to the disc so that it leaves the hemisphere surface immediately is (there is no friction):

  • A
    $V=\sqrt{g^2 R}$
  • B
    $V=\sqrt{2 g R}$
  • C
    $V=\sqrt{g R}$
  • D
    $V=\sqrt{g / R}$
