$A$ uniform rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. $A$ particle of mass $m$ strikes the rod at one end with a velocity $v$ perpendicular to the rod. If the particle comes to rest after the collision,the velocity of the center of mass of the rod after the collision is:

  • A
    $v/2$
  • B
    $mv/M$
  • C
    $mv/(M+m)$
  • D
    $v$
