A projectile is thrown into space so as to have maximum horizontal range $R$. Taking the  point of projection as origin, the coordinates of the points where the speed of the  particle is minimum are-

  • A

    $(R, R)$

  • B

    $\left( {R,\frac{R}{2}} \right)$

  • C

    $\left( {\frac{R}{2},\frac{R}{4}} \right)$

  • D

    $\left( {R,\frac{R}{4}} \right)$
