When a body is thrown with a velocity $u$ making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal plane,the maximum distance covered by it in the horizontal direction is:

  • A
    $\frac{u^2 \sin \theta}{g}$
  • B
    $\frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{2g}$
  • C
    $\frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{g}$
  • D
    $\frac{u^2 \cos 2\theta}{g}$
