A bullet weighing 0.30 N and moving at 660 m/s penetrates at 50 N block which is resting on a level plane having a coefficient of friction of 0.40. The bullet emerges from the block with a velocity of 180 m/s. Determine the following: a. velocity of the block as the bullet emerges from it. b. distance travelled by the block after the bullet emerges from it. c. time the block moves after the bullet emerges from it.
