A bullet of mass 1.9×10−3 kg embeds itself in a wooden block with mass 0.987 kg, which then compresses a spring (k = 120 N/m) by a distance 3.5×10−2 m before coming to rest. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and table is 0.42. What fra...

ANSWER A = 133.333333 B = 33.3333333 C = 13.3333333 WORK A = 4B C = B-20 A + B + C = 180 | | | | (4B) + B (B-20) = 180 \ | / \ | / \ | / \ | / \ | / \|/ 6B - 20 = 180 B = 33.33333 ^ A is 4 times that C is 20 less than that

Sorry about the lines, I was expecting it to look like this: img517.imageshack.us/img517/9280/picture1in2.png

There are 3 feet in a yard. Square yards to get square yards.

I plugged in my value for x, but both sides of the equation had different values, so I think I have the wrong value for x. How do I solve 200x^2-49x+490?
