Two balls are placed, one above the other, and dropped from a height of 1.05 m. The bottom ball has a mass which is 6 times the mass of the top ball. They are dropped from rest. When the balls strike the floor, they have a head on, elastic collision with one another. (Assume that the bottom ball strikes the floor, instantly reverses direction, and then collides with the top ball, which is still travelling downward.) How high will the top ball go after the bounce?

two putty balls, one of mass M and the other of mass 2M, collide and stick together. just before the collision, the ball with mass 2m is moving at an angle theta, with respect to the +y direction with speed V, and ball with mass M is moving in the +x direction with speed 2V.
