A uniform chain of length L lies on a smooth horizontal table with its length perpendicular to the edge of the table and a small portion of the chain is hanging over the edge. The chain starts sliding due to the weight of the hanging part

A

The acceleration of the chain is `(gx//L)`, where x is the length of the hanging part of chain.

B

The acceleration of the chain is `(g//L)(L-x)`, where x is the length of hanging part of chain.

C

The velocity of the chain is `x sqrt((g)/(L))`, where x is the length of hanging part of chain.

D

The velocity of the chain is `(L-x) sqrt((g)/(L))`, where x is the length of hanging part of chain.
