$A$ boy is running on a plane road with velocity $v$ with a long hollow tube in his hand. The water is falling vertically downwards with velocity $u$. At what angle to the vertical,he must incline the tube so that the water drops enter it without touching its sides?

  • A
    $\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{v}{u}\right)$
  • B
    $\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{v}{u}\right)$
  • C
    $\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{u}{v}\right)$
  • D
