1. Conservation of Energy
1.1. Energy is usually conserved. Carefully note what kinds of energy you start and finish with and make them equal to each other.
2. Conservation of Momentum
2.1. Are there any eternal forces?
2.1.1. Yes
2.1.2. No
2.1.2.1. Great! Momentum is conserved, so final momentum=initial momentum!
2.2. Are there any eternal torques?
2.2.1. No
2.2.1.1. Great! Angular momentum is conserved! Initial=final.
2.2.2. Yes
