Charges $-q,\, q,\,q$ are placed at the vertices $A$, $B$, $C$ respectively of an equilateral triangle of side $'a'$ as shown in the figure. If charge $-q$ is released keeping remaining two charges fixed, then the kinetic energy of charge $(-q)$ at the instant when it passes through the mid point $M$ of side $BC$ is 
  • A$\frac{{{q^2}}}{{8\pi { \in _0}a}}$
  • B$\frac{{{q^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}a}}$
  • C$\frac{{{q^2}}}{{2\pi { \in _0}a}}$
  • D$\frac{{{q^2}}}{{\pi { \in _0}a}}$
