Given one is the correct answer! I agree.

Let say Normal force to the plate is fn.

So force coponent in the direction normal to the force is fnsinθ.
Fn = w/g(vvcosθ).
So w/gv(vvcosθsinθ).
W/2g(vvsin2θ).

Where sin2θ=2sinθcosθ.

Here we can use a formula SIN a * COS a=SIN2a/2.

Good @Vasi.

It is normal to flow, Not normal to plate. Hence, Given one is correct answer!

Answer is correct it is calculated based on momentum equations.

In the third and fourth option, it will be (sinθ) ^2 instead of sin 2*θ.

How it is wav^2 x sin^2 theta / 2g? Explain.
