$A$ simple pendulum,made of a string of length $l$ and a bob of mass $m$,is released from a small angle $\theta_0$. It strikes a block of mass $M$,kept on a horizontal surface at its lowest point of oscillations,elastically. It bounces back and goes up to an angle $\theta_1$. Then $M$ is given by

  • A
    $\frac{m}{2}\left( \frac{\theta_0 + \theta_1}{\theta_0 - \theta_1} \right)$
  • B
    $m\left( \frac{\theta_0 - \theta_1}{\theta_0 + \theta_1} \right)$
  • C
    $m\left( \frac{\theta_0 + \theta_1}{\theta_0 - \theta_1} \right)$
  • D
    $\frac{m}{2}\left( \frac{\theta_0 - \theta_1}{\theta_0 + \theta_1} \right)$
