Solution

The correct option is A 50 kg ms1

We know that in a horizontal plane, Initial velocity of projectile = Final velocity of projectile
pi=mucosθ^i+musinθ^jpf=mucosθ^imusinθ^j|Δp|=|pfpi|=2musinθ
=2×1×50×12=50 kg ms1
Alternate Solution:
In the horizontal direction, momentum p doesn’t change.

Δpx=0
In vertical direction,
Δpy=musinθ(musinθ)=2musinθ
=2×1×50×12=50 kg ms1
