  • A

    The $x$-component of its velocity is constant.

  • B

    At the origin, the$y$-component of its velocity is a$\sqrt {\frac{g}{{2b}}} $.

  • C

    At the origin, its velocity makes an angle $tan^{-1}(a)$ with the $x$-axis.

  • D

    All of the above

A man wants to reach from $A$ to the opposite corner of the square $C$. The sides of the square are $100\, m$. A central square of $50\, m\,\times \,50\, m$ is filled with sand. Outside this square, he can walk at a speed $1\,ms^{-1}$. In the central square, he can walk only at a speed of $v\,ms^{-1}$ $(v < 1)$. What is smallest value of $v$ for which he can reach faster via a straight path through the sand than any path in the square outside the sand ?
