A bullet of mass $m$ moving with velocity $v$ strikes a suspended wooden block of mass $M$. If the block rises to a height $h$, the initial velocity of the bullet will be

  • A

    $\sqrt {2gh} $

  • B

    $\frac{{(M + m)}}{m}\sqrt {2gh} $

  • C

    $\frac{m}{{(M + m)}}\sqrt {2gh} $

  • D

    $\frac{{(M - m)}}{m}\sqrt {2gh} $
