When a bullet is fired a target, its velocity dwecreases by half after penetrating 30 cm into it. The additional thickness it will penetrate before coming to rest is

A

10 cm

B

30 cm

C

40 cm

D

60 cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(1)`

`1/2m[(u^(2))-(u^(2))/2] = R(3)`
`1/2(mu^(2)) = R(30 + X)`
Calculate X
