A small bob $A$ of mass $m$ is attached to a massless rigid rod of length 1 m pivoted at point $P$ and kept at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with vertical as shown in figure. At distance of 1 m below point $P$, an identical bob $B$ is kept at rest on a smooth horizontal surface that extends to a circular track of radius $R$ as shown in figure. If bob $B$ just manages to complete the circular path of radius $R$ upto a point $Q$ after being hit elastically by $\operatorname{bob} A$, then radius $R$ is $\_\_\_\_$ m.

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : For a mechanical system of many particles total kinetic energy is the sum of kinetic energies of all the particles.

Statement II : The total kinetic energy can be the sum of kinetic energy of the center of mass w.r.t to the origin and the kinetic energy of all the particles w.r.t. the center of mass as the reference.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

A

Both Statement I and Statement II are false

B

Statement I is false but Statement II is true
