  • A
    $M g\left(\frac{h}{x}\right)$
  • B
    $M g\left(\frac{x+h}{x}\right)$
  • C
    $M g(h+x)$
  • D
    $M g\left(\frac{x-h}{x}\right)$

Consider a one-dimensional collision involving a body of mass $m_1$ moving in the positive $x$ direction with speed $v_0$ and a second body of mass $m_2$ initially at rest. The collision can be completely inelastic,completely elastic,or partially inelastic. After the collision,$m_1$ moves with velocity $v_1$ and $m_2$ moves with velocity $v_2$. Determine the range of final velocity $v_1$ for the following cases:
$(A)$ If $m_1 > m_2$
$(B)$ If $m_1 < m_2$
