A pendulum bob of mass 2kg is given a horizontal velocity v0 at the bottom to just complete a vertical circle of radius

At top, v=gL, energy at bottom = energy at top. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to √75 m/s = 5√3 m/s ≈ 8.66 m/s. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option A is scientifically correct.
