$A$ particle of mass $m$ is projected with a velocity $u$ making an angle $45^o$ with the horizontal. The magnitude of the torque due to the weight of the projectile,when the particle is at its maximum height,about the point of projection is:

  • A
    $m u^2$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{4} m u^2$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{4} m u^2$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} m u^2$
