Answer:
h = 2.64 meters
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of one ball,
Speed of the first ball, (upward)
Mass of the other ball,
Speed of the other ball, (downward)
We know that in an inelastic collision, after the collision, both objects move with one common speed. Let it is given by V. Using the conservation of momentum to find it as :
V = 7.2 m/s
Let h is the height reached by the combined balls of putty rise above the collision point. Using the conservation of energy as :
h = 2.64 meters
So, the height reached by the combined mass is 2.64 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
