JEE Main 2013 Physics question

PhysicsSystems of Particles and Rotational MotionJEE Main 2013

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 ν collides with stationary point particle of mass M. If the maximum energy loss possible is given as then . Statement - II: Maximum energy loss occurs when the particles get stuck together as a result of the collision.

Answer: (2)

Solution

Maximum loss occurs in a perfectly inelastic collision (Statement II true). Then and the loss is $Missing argument for \frac\frac12mν^2
