$A$ body of mass $m_1$ moving with a uniform velocity of $40 \, m/s$ collides with another mass $m_2$ at rest,and then the two together begin to move with a uniform velocity of $30 \, m/s$. The ratio of their masses $\frac{m_1}{m_2}$ is:

  • A
    $0.75$
  • B
    $1.33$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $4$
