A bullet flying horizontally hits a wooden block that is initially at rest on a frictionless, horizontal surface. The bullet gets stuck in the block, and the bullet–block system has a final speed vf. Find the final speed of the bullet–block system in terms of the mass of the bullet mb, the speed of the bullet before the collision vb, the mass of the block mwb, and the amount of thermal energy generated during the collision Eth.
