When one ball swings in, aftermultiple collisions, one ball swings out at the other end of therow of balls. When two balls swing in, two swing out; when threeswing in, three swing out, and so on-always the same number out asin. Suppose that one ball, with mass m, swing in and collide withthe next ball with a velocity v. Why don’t two ball swing out atthe other end with a velocity of v/2? Clearly establish thereasoning and physical principles to receive full credit.

Can someone explain to me what laws are being used here and howit relates to the question? Thank you.
