    A)  \[\frac{mg}{r}\]                                              

    B)  \[\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}\]

    C)  \[\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{r}}\]                             

    D)  \[\frac{GM}{r}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Orbital velocity\[{{v}_{o}}=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}\]where,\[r=\]radius of circular path.
