Conservation of momentum: total Initial momentum of the system = total final momentum of the system Pi =Pf                  P = mv
Conservation of mechanical energy  Ei = Ef              E= U + K         U= mg H     K=1/2 mv2
For elastic Collison   :   V1f = ( m1  - m2 ) V1i/ ( m1 + m2 )       V2f = ( 2m1  ) V1i/ ( m1 + m2)
