$A$ wedge of mass $M = 4m$ lies on a frictionless plane. $A$ particle of mass $m$ approaches the wedge with speed $v$. There is no friction between the particle and the plane or between the particle and the wedge. The maximum height climbed by the particle on the wedge is given by

  • A
    $\frac{2v^2}{7g}$
  • B
    $\frac{v^2}{g}$
  • C
    $\frac{2v^2}{5g}$
  • D
    $\frac{v^2}{2g}$

In the figure shown,two identical balls of mass $M$ and radius $R$ each are placed in contact with each other on a frictionless horizontal surface. $A$ third ball of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is coming down vertically with a velocity $v_0$. It simultaneously hits the two balls. The smaller ball (top ball) does not stop after the collision but continues to move downwards with a speed $v_0/2$. Find the speed of each bigger ball after the collision.
