Angle of Ballistic Pendulum
You will be presented with a object hanging from a string from the ceiling of a room. A ball will be fired into the box and the box will swing back to a certain angle. You will be using the speed and mass of the ball as well as other factors to predict ahead of time the maximum angle of displacement for the pendulum

Based on all the parameters are given, find the speed of the ball/box right after the collision (ball is get stuck in box). Then use that to find the maximum angle of displacement
