The correct option is B tan−1(√5)
Draw the diagram as per the given information.
diagram
Find the velocity of the particle along the y direction.
As we know,
v2y=u2y+2gh …(i)
From the diagram,
vy=u2
By putting the value of vy in equation (i) we get,
v2y=(u2)2+2ghvy=√u24+2gh …(ii)
Find the value of height (h) from the ground.
From the given diagram we have,
therfore,
tanθ=vyvxtan45∘=√u24+2ghu√32 (iii)
By putting the value of tan45∘=1 in equation (iii) we get,
1=√u24+2ghu√32u√32=√u24+2gh
Squaring both sides,
3u24=u24+2gh2u24=2ghh=u24g …(iv)
Find the velocity of the particle along the y direction.
From the given diagram,
ux=vx=u2uy=√3u2
hence, from 3rd equation of motion,
v2y=u2y+2gh …(v)
therefore, by putting the values we have ,
v2y=(√3u2)2+2g(u24g)vy=√5u2
Find the value of θ
Hence,
tanθ=vyvx=(√5u2)u2tanθ=√5θ=tan−1√5
