A 0.25-kg skeet (clay target) is fired at an angle of 30°
Chapter 1, Problem 78GP(choose chapter or problem)
A -kg skeet (clay target) is fired at an angle of to the horizon with a speed of
\(25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) (Fig. ). When it reaches the maximum height, it is hit from below by a pellet traveling vertically upward at a speed of \(200 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) The pellet is embedded in the skeet.
(a) How much higher did the skeet go up?
(b) How much extra distance, \(\Delta x\). does the skeet travel because of the collision?
