A 1-kg block B is moving with a velocity v0 of magnitude v0 = 2m/s as it hits the 0.5-kg sphere A, which is at rest and hanging from a cord attached at O. Knowing that µk = 0.6 between the block and the horizontal surface and e = 0.8 between the block and the sphere, determine after impact (a) the maximum height h reached by the sphere, (b) the distance x traveled by the block.
