A bob of mass \(m\) is suspended at a point \(O\) by a light string of length \(l\) and left to perform vertical motion (circular) as shown in the figure. Initially, by applying horizontal velocity \(v_0\) at the point ‘A’, the string becomes slack when the bob reaches at the point ‘D’. The ratio of the kinetic energy of the bob at the points B and C is:
