2 \mathrm{~W}_0=\mathrm{W}_0+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}_1^2
\text { or } \mathrm{W}_0=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}_1^2
5 \mathrm{~W}_0=\mathrm{W}_0+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}_2^2
\text { or } 4 \mathrm{~W}_0=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}_2^2
\therefore \quad \frac{\mathrm{v}_1^2}{\mathrm{v}_2^2}=\frac{\mathrm{W}_0}{4 \mathrm{~W}_0}=\frac{1}{4} \text { or } \frac{\mathrm{v}_1}{\mathrm{v}_2}=\frac{1}{2}

\therefore \mathrm{v}_1: \mathrm{v}_2=1: 2
