Detailed Solution

 In E1, formation of carbocation is the slowest step. Hence, it is the rate determining step.
Rate of reaction∝stability of carbocation

Carbocation at bridge head carbon of bicyclic compound is highly unstable due to lack of planarity thus, compound (c) is the least reactive alkyl halide for E1 reaction.

Compound (a), (b) and (d) forms secondary carbocation which is relatively stable than the carbocation at bridge head carbon.
