A particle of mass m is moving along the xaxis with speed v when it collides with a particle of mass 2m initially at rest. After the collision, the first particle has come to rest, and the second particle has split into two equal-mass pieces that are shown in the figure. Which of the following statements correctly describes the speeds of the two pieces? (θ> 0)

Two blocks of masses m and M are moving with speeds v1 and v2 (v1>v2) in the same direction on the frictionless surface respectively, M being ahead of m. An ideal spring of force constant k is attached to the backside of M (as shown). The maximum compression of the spring when the block collides is
