Detailed Solution

$C_{1}$ = initial position of centre of mass of the chain

$C_{1}$ = $\frac{2 r}{π}$

$C_{2}$ = Final position of centre of mass of the falling chain.

$C_{2} = \frac{π r}{2}$

Conserving energy , $\frac{1}{2} m v^{2} + [- m g (B C_{2})] = m g (O C_{1})$

⇒ $V^{2} = 2 g (O C_{1} + B C_{2}) = 2 g (\frac{2 r}{π} + \frac{π r}{2})$

⇒ V = $\sqrt{g r (\frac{4 + π^{2}}{π})}$
