$A$ small block of mass $M$ moves on a frictionless surface of an inclined plane,as shown in the figure. The angle of the incline suddenly changes from $60^{\circ}$ to $30^{\circ}$ at point $B$. The block is initially at rest at $A$. Assume that collisions between the block and the incline are totally inelastic $\left(g=10 \ m/s^2\right)$.
$1.$ The speed of the block at point $B$ immediately after it strikes the second incline is
$(A) \sqrt{60} \ m/s$ $(B) \sqrt{45} \ m/s$ $(C) \sqrt{30} \ m/s$ $(D) \sqrt{15} \ m/s$
$2.$ The speed of the block at point $C$,immediately before it leaves the second incline is
$(A) \sqrt{120} \ m/s$ $(B) \sqrt{105} \ m/s$ $(C) \sqrt{90} \ m/s$ $(D) \sqrt{75} \ m/s$
$3.$ If the collision between the block and the incline is completely elastic,then the vertical (upward) component of the velocity of the block at point $B$,immediately after it strikes the second incline is
$(A) \sqrt{30} \ m/s$ $(B) \sqrt{15} \ m/s$ $(C) 0$ $(D) -\sqrt{15} \ m/s$
