    Solving Momentum Problem: Max Height of m1 After Elastic Collision

    Well, mechanical energy is KE+PE, so (1/2)m1*v1f+m1*g*hf = (1/2)m1*v1o+m1*g*ho But I am not sure how to connect that to the other equations I have. I am having a hard time getting my head around this one.

    Solving Momentum Problem: Max Height of m1 After Elastic Collision

    Two blocks are free to slide along a frictionless wooden track ABC as shown in Figure P9.20. The block of mass m1 = 4.93 kg is released from A. Protruding from its front end is the north pole of a strong magnet, repelling the north pole of an identical magnet embedded in the back end of the...
