$A$ moving body with mass $m_1$ strikes a stationary mass $m_2$. What should be the ratio $\frac{m_1}{m_2}$ so as to decrease the velocity of the first body by $1.5$ times after the collision?

$A$ body $A$ of mass $m=0.1 \; kg$ has an initial velocity of $3 \hat{i} \; ms^{-1}$. It collides elastically with another body $B$ of the same mass which has an initial velocity of $5 \hat{j} \; ms^{-1}$. After the collision,$A$ moves with a velocity $\vec{v}_A = 4(\hat{i} + \hat{j}) \; ms^{-1}$. The energy of $B$ after the collision is written as $\frac{x}{10} \; J$. The value of $x$ is:
