A bead of mass ' \(m\) ' slides without friction on the wall of a vertical circular hoop of radius ' \(R\) ' as shown in figure. The bead moves under the combined action of gravity and a massless spring ( k ) attached to the bottom of the hoop. The equilibrium length of the spring is ' \(R\) '. If the bead is released from top of the hoop with (negligible) zero initial speed, velocity of bead, when the length of spring becomes ' R ', would be (spring constant is ' k ', g is accleration due to gravity)
