MASS OF LIFT = M2                               MASS OF BALL = M1
V1=(M2-M1)​​         2M2  U2
       M2+M1            M2+M1
 
                                                M2>>M1
V1=M2  U1       +     2M2  U2
        M2                         M2
 
=U1+2U2
 
h=5m     ,    v2-u2=2gh
           0  -u12 =2x10x5...u1=10
             v1 = 10+2x1(u1+2u2)
                 =12m/s
