Reference no: EM13260621

A bullet of mass 7.00g is fired horizontally into a wooden block of mass 1.21kg resting on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.190. The bullet remains embedded in the block, which is observed to slide a distance 0.220m along the surface before stopping.

What was the initial speed of the bullet?
