On a frictionless surface,a block of mass $M$ moving at speed $V$ collides elastically with another block of same mass $M$ which is initially at rest. After collision,the first block moves at an angle $\theta$ to its initial direction and has a speed $\frac{V}{3}$. The second block's speed after the collision is:

  • A
    $\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}V$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}V$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{4}V$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}}V$
