Physics

Two billiard balls with the same mass m move in the direction ofone another. Ball one travels in the positive x-direction with aspeed of V1i, and ball two travels in the negative x-direction witha speed of V2i. The two balls collide elastically, and both ballschange direction after collision. If the initial speeds of theballs were v1i=2.0m/s and v2i =1.0m/s, what would be the finalspeed and direction of ball two, v2f, in m/s?    Thankyou so much.
