Four particles,each of mass $m$,are placed at the corners of a square of side $l$. The radius of gyration of the system about an axis passing through the center of the square and perpendicular to its plane is:

  • A
    $ \frac{l}{\sqrt{2}} $
  • B
    $ \frac{l}{2} $
  • C
    $ l $
  • D
    $ (\sqrt{2})l $
