$A$ small ball of mass $m$ starts at a point $A$ with speed $v_0$ and moves along a frictionless track $AB$ as shown. The track $BC$ has a coefficient of friction $\mu$. The ball comes to a stop at $C$ after traveling a distance $L$. The value of $L$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{2h}{\mu} + \frac{v_0^2}{2\mu g}$
  • B
    $\frac{h}{\mu} + \frac{v_0^2}{2\mu g}$
  • C
    $\frac{h}{2\mu} + \frac{v_0^2}{\mu g}$
  • D
    $\frac{h}{2\mu} + \frac{v_0^2}{2\mu g}$

$A$ wedge of mass $M = 4m$ lies on a frictionless plane. $A$ particle of mass $m$ approaches the wedge with speed $v$. There is no friction between the particle and the plane or between the particle and the wedge. The maximum height climbed by the particle on the wedge is given by

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moving horizontally with velocity $v_0$ strikes a smooth wedge of mass $M$,as shown in the figure. After the collision,the ball starts moving up the inclined face of the wedge and rises to a height $h$. Suppose the particle,when it reaches the horizontal surface again,has a velocity $v_1$ with respect to the ground,and the wedge has a velocity $v_2$. Choose the correct statement$(s)$.
