  • A
    $\frac{L^2}{mr}$
  • B
    $\frac{L^2m}{r}$
  • C

One end of a massless spring of spring constant $k$ and natural length $l_{0}$ is fixed,while the other end is connected to a small object of mass $m$ lying on a frictionless table. The spring remains horizontal on the table. If the object is made to rotate at an angular velocity $\omega$ about an axis passing through the fixed end,then the elongation of the spring will be
