In a ballistic pendulum, a 100 g ball is traveling horizontally at 4.25 m/s and strikes a stationary, 425 g pendulum, sticking to the pendulum after the collision. After the collision, what is the maximum change in the height of the center of mass of the pendulum+ball from what it is right after the collision?
