ROSECODE 546
Collisions
Two blocks of mass and are initially still.

We push the block in the direction of the block .
The block will hit the wall and bounces back toward .
After a certain number of collisions of between and the wall, will move to the right indefinitely.
Given that , how many collisions are there?
It is assumed that the collisions are perfect: no friction, no energy loss.
