In a ballistic pendulum experiment, a small marble is tired into a cup attached to the end of a pendulum. If the mass of the marble is 0.0295 kg and the mass of the pendulum is 0.250 kg, how high h will the pendulum swing if the marble has an initial speed of 5.45 m/s? Assume that the mass of the pendulum is concentrated at its end so that linear momentum is conserved during this collision. h= 0.0231 Incorrect m
