A projectile is thrown with some initial velocity at an angle $\alpha$ to the horizontal. Its velocity when it is at the highest point is $(2 / 5)^{1 / 2}$ times the velocity when it is at height half of the maximum height. Find the angle of projection $\alpha$ with the horizontal.

  • A

    $30$

  • B

    $45$

  • C

    $60$

  • D
