Refer back to example 9-12. A bullet with a mass of m=8.10gm and an initial speed of vi=320m/s is fired into a ballistic pendulum. What mass must the bob have if the bullet-bob combination is to rise to a maximum height of 0.125 m after the collision?
Express your answer using two significant figures.
Given:
Mass of the bullet, 
Initial speed of the bullet, 
Maximum height of the bullet-bob combination, 
=================
First, find the velocity of the bullet-bob combination just after the collision
Consider the bullet-bob combination
As the bullet-bob combination rise, its kinetic energy after collision is converted into potential energy.







==================================
Consider the collision
During collision momentum is conserved
Initial momentum = Final momentum
