If a stone is to hit a point which is at a horizontal distance $d$ and at a vertical height $h$ above the point from where the stone is launched,what is the initial speed $u$ if the stone is launched at an angle $\theta$?

  • A
    $\frac{g}{\cos \theta} \sqrt{\frac{d}{2(d \tan \theta - h)}}$
  • B
    $\frac{d}{\cos \theta} \sqrt{\frac{g}{2(d \tan \theta - h)}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{g d^2}{h \cos^2 \theta}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{g d^2}{(d - h)}}$
