velocity of mass m2 along the incline will not change let the velocity of mass m2 perpendicular to incline after collision be V
 
hence net velocity V2 after collision of mass M2 will be root(v^2 + (u2sin)^2)
 
let velocity of mass M1 after collision be V1 towards left which is component of Va
 
so along common normal direction of collision i.e perp. to incline
we have
 
V + Va = e (U2cos)--------------------------1
 
conserving momentum along this direction
 
M1Va - M2V = M2U2cos  ------------------2
 
solve 1 &2 to get Va and V
 
hence V1 is Vasin & V2 is  root(v^2 + (u2sin)^2)
