In a collinear collision,a particle with an initial speed $v_0$ strikes a stationary particle of the same mass. If the final total kinetic energy is $50\%$ greater than the original kinetic energy,the magnitude of the relative velocity between the two particles,after collision,is:

  • A
    $\sqrt{2} v_0$
  • B
    $\frac{v_0}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{v_0}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{v_0}{4}$
