This question has Statement - I and Statement - II  of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements.

Statement - I: A point particle of mass m moving with speed ν collides with stationary point particle of mass M. If the maximum energy loss possible is given as
f12mν2 then f=mM+m.

Statement - II: Maximum energy loss occurs when the particles get stuck together as a result of the collision.
