A bullet B of mass mB traveling with a speed v0 = 1200 m/s ricochets off a fixed steel plate A of mass mA. Let mA ≫ mB so that it can be assumed that mB/mA → 0. If the incidence angle of the bullet is θ = 15° and the COR of the impact is e = 0.5, determine the rebound angle ϕ, as well as the bullet’s rebound speed.
