Physics

A novelty collision device known as the executive toy consistsof five identical metal balls. 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.
