Question

A small block of mass m starts at rest from the top of a big triangular block of mass M and slides down the incline of the big block with no friction. The triangular block is resting on a smooth horizontal surface. Find the final speed of the big triangular block when the little block reaches the bottom of the incline. Solve this problem WITHOUT the use of momentum. CANNOT use concepts of momenta. (Please go step by step showing where you derived the variables from! Diagram if possible. Please explain! Cannot just use a general formula answer must be derived.)
