Question
A particle of mass m moving horizontally with v0 strikes a smooth wedge of mass M, as shown in figure. After collision, the ball starts moving up the inclined face of the wedge and rises to a height h.
Identify the correct statement(s) related to the situation when the particle starts moving downward.
- The centre of mass of the system remains stationary
- Both the particle and the wedge remain stationary with respect to centre of mass
- When the particle reaches the horizontal surface it velocity relative to the wedge is v0
- None of these
The correct answer is: When the particle reaches the horizontal surface it velocity relative to the wedge is v0
