An iron ball with mass 180g is attached to a chain that is 1.2m long, suspended at an angle of 55 degrees . The iron ball is then released from this position and at the very bottom of its swing, it strikes a 450g wood block that is resting on a frictionless surface. To what angle does the iron ball rebound?
