A bag P (mass M) hang by a long thread and a bullet (mass m) comes horizontally with velocity v and gets caught in the bag. Then for the combined (bag + bullet) system,
- momentum is mv throughout
- momentum is (M + m)v throughout
- kinetic energy is \(\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}\) throughout
- loss in kinetic energy in collision process is \(\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}\left(\frac{M}{M+m}\right)\)
Answer
(A) momentum is mv throughout, (D) loss in kinetic energy in collision process is 1 2 m v^ 2 ( M M+m )
