$A$ particle of mass $m$ is projected from the ground with an initial speed $u_0$ at an angle $\alpha$ with the horizontal. At the highest point of its trajectory,it makes a completely inelastic collision with another identical particle,which was thrown vertically upward from the ground with the same initial speed $u_0$. The angle that the composite system makes with the horizontal immediately after the collision is :
