A stone of mass m tied to the end of a string revolves in a vertical circle of radius R. The net forces at the lowest and highest points of the circle directed vertically downwards are: [Choose the correct alternative]
 
Lowest Point
Highest Point
(a)
$mg - T_1$
$mg + T_2$
(b)
$mg + T_1$
$mg - T_2$
(c)
$mg + T_1 - (mv_1^2)/R$
$mg - T_2 + (mv_1^2)/R$
(d)
$mg - T_1 - (mv_1^2)/R$
$mg + T_2 + (mv_1^2)/R$
$T_1$ and $v_1$ denote the tension and speed at the lowest point. $T_2$ and $v_2$​​​​​​​ denote corresponding values at the highest point.
