Homework Statement
I have to prove some formula, I got stuck in the process.
Homework Equations
Formula to prove:
[tex]v_{0} = \frac{M+m}{m}\sqrt{2gus}[/tex]
Valid equation that should get me to this formula:
[tex]\frac{m^2v_{0}^2}{2(M+m)} = gmus[/tex]
The Attempt at a Solution
[tex]v_{0}^2=\frac{2(M+m)}{m^2}gmus[/tex]
[tex]v_{0}^2 = \frac{M+m}{m}2gus[/tex]
[tex]v_{0} = \sqrt{\frac{M+m}{m}2gus}[/tex]
I'm pretty sure my math has failed me here, that right handside of the equation seems fishy, or maybe book did a mistake?
