The kinetic energy $k$ of a particle moving along a circle of radius $R$ depends on the distance covered $s$ as $k = as^2$ where $a$ is a constant. The force acting on the particle is

  • A

    $2a\frac{{{s^2}}}{R}$

  • B

    $2as{\left( {1 + \frac{{{s^2}}}{{{R^2}}}} \right)^{1/2}}$

  • C

    $2as$

  • D

    $2a\frac{{{R^2}}}{s}$
