Chapter 7, Problem 51P
* To confirm the results of Problem 7.50, you try a new experiment. The 50-g arrow is launched in an identical manner so that it hits and embeds in a 3.50-kg block. The block hangs from strings. After the arrow joins the block, they swing up so that they are 0.50 m higher than the block’s starting point. How fast was the arrow moving before it joined the block?
