Solve Conservation of Momentum and Kinetic Energy Equations for a point elastic collision.
m1*u1+m2*u2=m1*v1+m2*v2
m1*u1^2+m2*u2^2=m1*v1^2+m2*v2^2

The abs() needs to be included in all of the test suite checks, not just the first one.
Test suite is broken again , plz fix :)
Each test case now includes abs().
