A  particle of mass m moves in a circle on a smooth horizontal plane with velocity v0 at a radius R0. The mass is attached to a string which passes through a smooth hole in the plane as shown. The tension in the string is increased gradually and finally it moves in a circle of radius R0/2. The final value of the kinetic energy is
