A wooden block with a mass of 200 g rests on two supports. A piece of sticky chewing gum with a mass of 44.0 g is fired straight up at the block, colliding with the block when the gum's speed is 11.0 m/s. The gum sticks to the block. Use g = 10.0 m/s2.
(a) What is the speed of the gum-block system immediately after the collision?


(b) What is the maximum height reached by the gum-block system, measured from the point of the collision?
