Two small spheres of putty, A and B, hang from the ceiling on massless strings of equal length. Sphere A is raised to the side so its string is horizontal to the ground. It is released, swings down, and collides with sphere B (initially at rest). The spheres stick together and swing upward along a circular path to a maximum height on the other side. Which of the following principles must be used to determine this final height?
I. The work-energy equation
II. The impulse-momentum equation
(a) I only (b) II only (c) Both I and II (d) Either I or II but not both (e) Neither I nor II
