 Two identical bodies each of mass m are moving with velocities v1 and v2 respectively in same direction.  The kinetic energy of the system in the frame of reference attached to the centre of mass is (v is the relative velocity between the two bodies)
1) 1/4 mv2   2) 1/2 mv2    3)mv2      4) 1/8 mv2

Velocity of centre of mass = (mv1+mv2)/(m+m) = (v1+v2)/2

From COM frame velocity of 1st mass = v1 - (v1+v2)/2
From COM frame velocity of 2nd mass = v2 - (v1+v2)/2

Hence KE = (m/2){v1 - (v1+v2)/2}2 + (m/2){v2 - (v1+v2)/2}2

                = m(v2-v1)2 = mv2

the ans is 1/4mv2
bcoz velocity of centre of mass will be =V/2 WHERE v is relative velocity so KE=1/2*2M*(V/2)2=1/4MV2

Beat others otherwise they will beat u
