$A$ player kicks a ball at a speed of $20 \ ms^{-1}$ so that its horizontal range is maximum. Another player $24 \ m$ away in the direction of the kick,starts running in the same direction at the same instant the ball is kicked. If he has to catch the ball just before it reaches the ground,he should run with a velocity equal to: (Take $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$)

  • A
    $2 \sqrt{2} \ ms^{-1}$
  • B
    $4 \sqrt{2} \ ms^{-1}$
  • C
    $6 \sqrt{2} \ ms^{-1}$
  • D
    $10 \sqrt{2} \ ms^{-1}$
