$A$ uniform disc of radius $R$ is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. $A$ particle of mass $m$ is moving with velocity $v$ on the surface and hits the disc at the periphery and sticks to it. The angular velocity of the system after the collision is:

  • A
    $\frac{mv}{R(M+m)}$
  • B
    $\frac{2mv}{R(M+2m)}$
  • C
    $\frac{mv}{R(M+2m)}$
  • D
    $\frac{2mv}{R(M+m)}$
