Problem C10:
A block of mass m0 slides without friction down the curved surface as
shown above. It starts from rest at a height n1h0. After
it slides down the curved surface, it collides and sticks to another object of
mass n2m0. Both objects move off together with a speed of
v =
√ gh 0/n3.
What is n3? Note that n1, n2, and n3
are unitless.
