A student throws a 9 gram of gum is thrown across the physics lab from a distance of 2.1 m. When the gum has a horizontal velocity of v0 it connects with a mass on the end of 1.58 kg simple pendulum which is initially at rest. The pendulum has a length of L of 0.76 m. The gum sticks to the pendulum mass and swings backwards to gain a vertical height of 11.3 cm. 1) What is initial velocity of the wad of gum?

vmax = m/sec

2) How long does it take the pendulum (and the gum) to come to rest for the first time?

t = Seconds
