Four particles,each of mass $M$,move along a circle of radius $R$ under the action of their mutual gravitational attraction as shown in the figure. The speed of each particle is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}(2\sqrt{2}+1)}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}(2\sqrt{2}-1)}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}(\sqrt{2}+1)}$
