Calculate the speed of the bullet just before it hits wood

Reference no: EM13543284

A bullet of mass m= 3.60×10-2kg is fired along an incline and imbeds itself quickly into a block of wood of mass M= 1.30kg. The block and bullet then slide up the incline, assumed frictionless, and rise a height H= 1.40m before stopping. Calculate the speed of the bullet just before it hits the wood.
