Irrespectively is the swiftness of every marble instantly after the collision?
A 46g marble running at 2.3m/s hits a 23g marble at rest. Irrespectively is the velocity of every marble forward away after the collision?

Apply using the following theory:
Assume an elastic collision:
initial KE = 1/2 m1 v1^2
=
final KE = 1/2 m1 v1f^2 + 1/2 m2 v2f^2
initial momentum = m1 v1
=
final momentum = m1 v1f + m2 v2f
Two equations, two unknowns
Solve the second equation for the second marble’s speed after collision:
v2f = m1 (v1 – v1f) /m2
Plug that into the first:
m2 v1^2 = m2 v1f^2 + m1 (v1 – v1f)^2
0 = v1f^2 (m2 + m1) – 2 m1 v1 vf – v1^2 (m2 – m1)
And solve the quadratic for v1f
v1f = 2 m1 v1 +- sqrt (4m1^2 v1^2 + 4 v1^2 (m2^2 – m1^2) ) / 2 (m2+m1)
= v1 (m1 +- m2) / (m2 + m1)
= v1 or v1 (m1 – m2) / (m1 + m2)
The first solution means it just went through without touching the other marble.
The second one is the one you want.
And substitute to get the final speed of the second ball:
v2f = m1 (v1 – v1f) /m2
= 2 m1 v1 / (m1 + m2)
