A body is made in the form of wedge with an angle 45. See figure. A ball of mass m, moving horizontally at a speed v0 =  m/s collides with the wedge of mass M=2m. As a result of the impact, the ball bounces vertically upwards. Neglect the friction between the wedge and horizontal surface. The speed of the ball just after the impact is

(a)

0.5 m/s

(b)

2 m/s

(c)

 m/s

(d)

1 m/s
