A body of mass m moving at a certain speed suffers a perfectly inelastic collision with a body of mass M at rest. The ratio of the final kinetic energy of the system to the initial kinetic energy will be:
1. | \(m \over {m + M}\) | 2. | \(M \over {m + M}\) |
3. | \({m + M} \over m\) | 4. | \({m + M} \over M\) |
