15. A 5.0 kg chunk of ice is sliding at on the floor of an ice-covered valley when it collides with and sticks to another 8.0 kg chunk of ice that is initially at rest. Since the valley is icy, there is no friction. After the collision, how high above the valley floor will the combined chunks go? 8kg 5kg 12m/s
