$A$ boy throws a ball with a velocity $u$ at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. At the same instant,he starts running with a uniform velocity to catch the ball before it hits the ground. To achieve this,he should run with a velocity of

  • A
    $u \cos \theta$
  • B
    $u \sin \theta$
  • C
    $u \tan \theta$
  • D
    $u \sec \theta$
