A bullet (mass m) with the velocity v hits centrally an initially resting frictionless supported board of mass M. It penetrates the board and has thereafter the velocity v ̅. a) Determine the velocity of the board after the penetrating shot. b) How much energy is needed for producing the penetration hole? Given: M = 10m, v ̅= v/2.
