Two blocks of masses m1 = 2.00 kg and m2 = 4.00 kg are released from rest at a height of h = 5.00 m on a friction less track as shown in Figure P9.77. When they meet on the level portion of the track, they undergo a head-on, elastic collision. Determine the maximum heights to which m, and rise on the curved portion of the track after the collision. \
