Calculate what was the muzzle speed of the bullet

Reference no: EM13561447

A 25 g bullet strikes and becomes embedded in a 1.35 kg block of wood placed on a horizontalsurface just in front of the gun. If the coefficient of kineticfriction between the block and the surface is 0.40, and the impact drives the block a distanceof 9.5 m before it comes to rest, what was the muzzle speed of thebullet?
