$A$ body of mass $m$ is moving with velocity $u$ as shown in the figure and it collides with a body of mass $4m$ at rest. If the collision is perfectly inelastic,then the percentage loss in kinetic energy is:

  • A
    $64$
  • B
    $40$
  • C
    $50$
  • D
    $80$

Two identical blocks of ice move in opposite directions with equal speed and collide with each other. What will be the minimum speed required to make both the blocks melt completely, if the initial temperatures of the blocks were $-8^{\circ} C$ each (in $ms^{-1}$)? (Specific heat of ice is $2100 \ Jkg^{-1} K^{-1}$ and latent heat of fusion of ice is $3.36 \times 10^{5} \ Jkg^{-1}$)

$A$ body of mass $m$ moving with a constant velocity $v$ hits another body of the same mass that is at rest. If the two bodies stick together after the collision,the velocity of the compound body is:
