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 stationary point particle of mass $M$. If the maximum energy loss possible is given as $f$ $\left( {\frac{1}{2}m{v^2}} \right)$ 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.
