    - m1v1+m2v2 = m1v1'+m2v2'
    - mv+mv = mv'+mv'
    - v = v'

    Here, a body of mass m moving with a constant velocity v hits another body of the mass m moving with same velocity v but in the opposite direction, and sticks to it. We can write m
    1

    u
    1

    −m
    2

    u

    =(m

    +m

    )v
    As m

    =m

    =m and u

    =u
    2

    =v
    2mv=0
    v=0
