100%

The 20-g bullet is travelling at 400 m/s when it becomes embedded in the 2-kg stationary block. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is μk = 0.32.

Determine the distance the block will slide before it stops.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
### Problem Description

A 20-g bullet is traveling at 400 m/s when it becomes embedded in a stationary 2-kg block. The coefficient of kinetic friction (\(\mu_k\)) between the block and the plane is 0.32.

#### Objective
Determine the distance the block will slide before it stops. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

### Solution Input
Provide your answer using the equation \( s = \) with both a value and units.

- **Submit**: Click the button to submit your answer.
- **Provide Feedback**: There is an option to provide feedback on the question.

### Diagram Explanation

- The diagram shows a bullet moving horizontally toward a stationary block.
- The bullet is depicted with an arrow indicating its velocity of 400 m/s as it approaches the block.
- The block is resting on a surface that interacts with the block through kinetic friction.

This exercise challenges the understanding of physics concepts, such as momentum and friction, and involves calculations to determine how far the block will slide once the bullet becomes embedded in it.
