$A$ block moving horizontally on a smooth surface with a speed of $40\, m/s$ splits into two parts with masses in the ratio of $1:2$. If the smaller part moves at $60\, m/s$ in the same direction,then the fractional change in kinetic energy is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{8}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{4}$
