Question:
This question has Statement I and Statement II. Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement - I : A point particle of mass m moving with speed v collides with stationary point particle of mass M. If the maximum energy loss possible is given as $f\left(\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}\right)$ then $f=\left(\frac{m}{M+m}\right)$.
Statement - II : Maximum energy loss occurs when the particles get stuck together as a result of the collision.
Correct Option: , 4
Solution:
