5. A 10-g bullet is fired into a ballistic pendulum with a mass of 6.00 kg and is hanging on a 0.70 m cord. When the bullet hits the pendulum it raises to a maximum height of 0.35 m. (a) Determine the initial speed of the bullet. Calculate the (a) kinetic energy of the bullet before the collision and the (c) kinetic energy of the bullet and pendulum system right after the bullet embeds itself into the pendulum.
