To find velocities, we use relative velocity trick, (v2 − v1)f = −(v2 − v1)i
Inelastic
An inelastic collision is one in which part of the kinetic energy is changed to some other form of
energy in the collision.

Vector quantity
Moment of Inertia - Kg x meters^2
The rotational analog to mass- it represents an objects rotational inertia. An object's rotational inertia is determined by the chosen axis of rotation and is additive.
Parallel axis theorem: The moment of inertia of a parallel axis is equal to the moment of inertia of an object's center of mass + the total mass x the distance between the center of mass and the parallel axis of rotation
