The ratio of the speed of a projectile at the point of projection to the speed at the top of its trajectory is x. The angle of projection with the horizontal is

a
sin-1 x
b
cos-1 x
c
sin-1 (1/x)
d
cos-1 (1/x)

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Speed of projectile at the point of projection = uSpeed or projectile at the top of its trajectory = u cosθ∴uucosθ=x or cosθ=1x⇒θ=cos-11x
