Question

A small block of mass m ₁ = 0.500 kg is released from rest at
the top of a curved wedge of mass m ₂ =3.00 kg, which sits on
a frictionless horizontal surface as in Figure P6.73a. When the
block leaves the wedge, its velocity is measured to be 4.00 m/s
to the right, as in Figure P6.73b. (a) What is the velocity of
the wedge after the block reaches the horizontal surface? (b)
What is the height h of the wedge?
