A small particle of mass m is fixed to the perimeter of a ring of same mass and radius r. The system comprising of particle and ring is placed on a horizontal plane. Friction is negligible on horizontal plane. Initially particle is at top most point, then the system is released from rest. Answer next two question when the particle is at the same height as the centre of ring aftr being released from top most point. Assume that the ring stays in vertical plane during its motion under consideration

Mark the CORRECT option(s):

A

instantaneous acceleration of the centre of ring is `(g)/(2)`

B

Acceleration of centre of ring initially points towards left and then towards right

C

The force exerted by the ring on the ground at the instant given is `(3)/(2)mg`

D

The force exerted by the ring on the ground at the instant given is `2mg`
