Two objects $A$ and $B$ each of mass $m$ are connected by a light inextensible string. They are restricted to move on a frictionless ring of radius $R$ in a vertical plane (as shown in fig). The objects are released from rest at the position shown. Then, the tension in the cord just after release is
