Centripetal
Force $=$ mass $\times$ centripetal acceleration
$\mathrm{N} \cos \theta=\mathrm{m} \frac{\mathrm{V}^{2}}{\mathrm{r}}$ $...(i)$
$\mathrm{N} \sin \theta=\mathrm{mg}$ $...(ii)$
$(ii)$ $/(\mathrm{i}),$ tan $\theta=\frac{\mathrm{rg}}{\mathrm{V}^{2}}$
$\Rightarrow V=\sqrt{\frac{r g}{\tan \theta}}$
$V=\sqrt{\frac{g\left(R^{2}-d^{2}\right)}{d}}\left[\begin{array}{c}{r=\sqrt{R^{2}-d^{2}}} \\ {\tan \theta=d / r}\end{array}\right]$
