Two blocks are free to slide along the frictionless wooden track ABC shown in Figure P9.20. A block of mass m1 = 5.00 kg is released from A. Protruding from its front end is the north pole of a strong magnet, repelling the north pole of an identical magnet embedded in the back end of the block of mass m2 = 10.0 kg, initially at rest. The two blocks never touch. Calculate the maximum height to which m1 rises after the elastic collision.
