4. Mass M1M_{1} is moving with speed v toward stationary mass M2M_{2}. The speed of the center of mass of the system is (A) M1M2v\frac{M_{1}}{M_{2}} v (B) (1+M1M2)v\left(1+\frac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}\right) v (C) (1+M2M1)v\left(1+\frac{M_{2}}{M_{1}}\right) v (D) (1−M1M2)v\left(1-\frac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}\right) v (E) (M1M1+M2)v\left(\frac{M_{1}}{M_{1}+M_{2}}\right) v
