Two particles of mass m each are tied at the ends of a light string of length `2a`. The whole system is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface with the string held tight so that, each mass is at a distance 'a' from the center P (as shown in the figure). Now, the mid-point of the string is pulled vertically upwards with a small but constant force F. As a result, the particles move towards each other on the surface. The magnitude of acceleration, when the separation between them becomes `2x`, is :

Options

A. `(F)/(2m)(a)/(sqrt(a^(2)-x^(2)))`
B. `(F)/(2m)(x)/(sqrt(a^(2)-x^(2)))`
C. `(F)/(2m)(x)/(a)`
D. `(F)/(2m)(sqrt(a^(2)-x^(2)))/(x)`
