Six identical spheres are arranged as shown in the figure. The two spheres at the left end

Question:

Six identical spheres are arranged as shown in the figure. The two spheres at the left end are released from the displaced positions and strike sphere 3 with speed v1. Assuming that the common coefficient of restitution is e = 1, explain why two spheres leave the right end of the row with speed v1 instead of one sphere leaving the right end with speed 2v1.
