A mass is supported on a frictionless horizontal surface. It is attached to a string and rotates about a fixed centre at an angular velocity ω0. If the length of the string and angular velocity are doubled, the tension in the string which was initially T0 is now 

(1) T0

(2) T0/2

(3) 4 T0

(4) 8 T0
