$A$ point mass of $1 \, kg$ collides elastically with a stationary point mass of $5 \, kg$. After their collision, the $1 \, kg$ mass reverses its direction and moves with a speed of $2 \, m/s$. Which of the following statement(s) is (are) correct for the system of these two masses?
$(A)$ Total momentum of the system is $3 \, kg \cdot m/s$
$(B)$ Momentum of $5 \, kg$ mass after collision is $4 \, kg \cdot m/s$
$(C)$ Kinetic energy of the centre of mass is $0.75 \, J$

This question has Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement-$1$: $A$ point particle of mass $m$ moving with speed $u$ collides with a stationary point particle of mass $M$. If the maximum energy loss possible is given as $f \left( \frac{1}{2} m u^2 \right)$, then $f = \left( \frac{m}{M + m} \right)$.
Statement-$2$: Maximum energy loss occurs when the particles get stuck together as a result of the collision.

$A$ block moving horizontally on a smooth surface with a speed of $40\, m/s$ splits into two parts with masses in the ratio of $1:2$. If the smaller part moves at $60\, m/s$ in the same direction,then the fractional change in kinetic energy is:
