A particle of mass M is joined to a fixed point A by a string (massless) of length L. Initially the string is slack and the mass moves with constant speed v_0 along a straight line . When the mass reaches a distance of L from A the string becomes taut and the particle goes into a circular path around A. (there is no gravity in this problem).

a. What conservation law is applicable in this situation and why

b. Calculate the ratio of the initial to final kinetic energy if they are not the same
