The 0.02 kg bullet is traveling at 400 m/s when it becomes embedded in the 2 kg stationary block. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and plane is 0.2.
A. Determine the velocity of the bullet and block just after the collision.
B. Use the principle of linear impulse and momentum to determine the time during which the bullet/block system will slide before it stops.
