$A$ bag (mass $M$) hangs by a long thread and a bullet (mass $m$) comes horizontally with velocity $v$ and gets caught in the bag. Then for the combined (bag $+$ bullet) system

  • A
    Momentum is $\frac{mvM}{M + m}$
  • B
    Kinetic energy is $\frac{mv^2}{2}$
  • C
    Momentum is $\frac{mv(M + m)}{M}$
  • D
    Kinetic energy is $\frac{m^2v^2}{2(M + m)}$
