Question
A 23.0-g bullet strikes and becomes attached inside a 2.80-kg block of wood placed on a horizontal surface just in front of the gun. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.329, and the impact drives the block a distance of 12.6 m before it comes to rest, what was the muzzle speed of the bullet?
