Find the initial velocity of the pendulum


In a ballistic pendulum an object of mass m = 0.2kg is fired with an inital speed of v= 700m/s at a pendulum bob. The bob has a mass of M = 34kg, which is suspended by a rod of length L=1.2 m and negligible mass. After the collision, the pendulum and object stick together and swing to a maximum angular displacement, theta. (a) Find the initial velocity of the pendulum. (b) Find the maximal angle, theta.
