A lead pellet is shot vertically upwards into a clay block that is stationary at the moment of impact
but is able to rise freely after impact.
stationary clay
block
mass 95 g
impact velocity
200 ms-1
lead pellet
mass 5.0 g
The pellet hits the block with an initial velocity of 200 ms-1. It embeds itself in the block and does
not emerge.
How high above its initial position will the block rise?
(Mass of pellet = 5.0 g; mass of clay block = 95 g.)
