An object moves at a constant speed along a circular path in horizontal $XY$ plane with centre at origin. When the object is at  $x = -2\,m$ , its velocity is $-(4\,m/ s)\hat j$ . What is object's acceleration when it is at $y = 2\,m$ ?

  • A

    $-(8\,m/ s^2)\hat j$

  • B

    $-(8\,m/ s^2)\hat i$

  • C

    $-(4\,m/ s^2)\hat j$

  • D

    $(4\,m/ s^2)\hat i$
