A bullet of mass 4.3 g is fired horizontally into a 7.4 kg wooden block at rest on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.53. The bullet stops in the block, which slides straight ahead for 1.7 m (without rotation). (a) What is the speed of the block immediately after the bullet stops relative to it? (b) At what speed is the bullet fired?
(A) after collision,
a = - uk g = - 0.53 x9.8 = - 5.19 m/s^2
Applying vf^2 - v0^2 = 2 a d
0^2 - v^2 = 2(-5.19)(1.7)
v = 4.20 m/s
(B) Applying momentum conservation,
(4.3 v0) + (7400 x 0) = (7400 + 4.3) (4.20)
v0 = 7232 m/s

A 98.0 g wooden block is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface when a 12.2 g bullet is fired horizontally into (but does not go through) it. After the impact, the block–bullet combination slides 6.5 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.750, determine the speed of the bullet (in m/s) immediately before impact.

1. A 0.012 kg bullet is fired horizontally into a 0.1 kg wooden block that is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface and connected to a spring having spring constant k= 150 N/m. The bullet becomes embedded in the block. If the bullet-block system compresses the spring by a maximum of 0.8 meter and comes to complete stop, what was the speed of the bullet at impact with the block? -www-
A 109 g wooden block is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface when a 13.0 g bullet is fired horizontally into (but does not go through) it.
