a) |
May be equal to |
|
b) |
Must be equal to or less than |
|
c) |
May be equal to or greater than |
|
d) |
Can not be exactly calculated as the information given is insufficient |

(a,c) As total mass is |
and velocity of centre of mass is 
hence KE of the system may have any value equal to or greater then 
. However exact value of KE can be calculated only when values of 
and 
are known to us.
