Question

In a laboratory experiment, a bullet of mass 47.0 g is shot horizontally into a stationary block of totara of mass 3.50 kg that hangs from a light string. The bullet is then embedded a distance d = 3.50 cm into the block and the combined block-bullet object moves at a speed of 3.30 m s¡V1 immediately after impact. Note: g = 9.80 m s¡V2
(a) If instead of being suspended, the block was resting on a rough table, how far would it move before coming to a stop after the bullet's impact? [Assume £gk = 0.413 for the coefficient of kinetic friction applicable to the surface of contact between the block and the table]
