A 0.035 bullet strikes a 5kg wooden block that is stationary and gets stuck inside the block. The block and bullet move together at 8.6 m/s. What is the initial velocity of the bullet?

Relax

Respuesta :

Answer:

1240 m/s

Explanation:

[Do you mean 0.035 kg bullet?]

Since the momentum of the system is conserved,

Let u m/s be the initial velocity of the bullet

0.035u = 8.6(5+0.035)

u ~= 1237.1714 m/s

u = 1240 m/s (3 sig. fig.)
