In a ballistic pendulum, a bullet of mass m = 5.50 g is fired with an initial speed v0 = 550 m/s at the bob of a pendulum. The bob has mass M = 2.00 kg, and suspended by a rod of negligible mass. After the collision, the bullet and bob stick together and swing through an arc, eventually gaining a height h. (a) Please find the h. (b) Please find the kinetic energy of the system before the collision and after the collision. (Hint: Use momentum conservation law for the collision process, and then use energy conservation law for the swing process)
