A bullet of mass 20 g travelling horizontally with a speed of 500 m/s passes through a wooden block of mass 10.0 kg initially at rest on a level surface. The bulet emerges with speed of 100 m/s and the block slides 20 cm on the surface before coming to rest. Find the friction cioefficient between the block and the surface figure.

A 4.00g bullet travelling horizontally with a velocity of magnitude 500m//s is fired into a wooden block with a mass of 1.00kg , initially at rest on a level surface. The bullet passes through the block and emerges with speed 100m//s . The block slides a distance of 0.30m along the surface from its initial position. (a) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface? (b) What is the decrease in kinetic energy of the bullet? (c) What is the kinetic energy of the block at the instant after the bullet has passed through it? Neglect friction during collision of bullet with the block.

A bullet of mass 10 g travelling horizontally with a velocity of 300 m/s strikes a block of wood of mass 290 g which rests on a rough horizontal floor. After impact the block and the bullet move together and come to rest when the block has travelled a distance of 15 m. The coefficient of friction between the block and the floor will be - (Duration of impact is very short)

A block of mass 10 kg is placed on a horizontal surface as shown in the figure and a force F = 100 N is applied on the block as shown, in the figure. The block is at rest with respect to ground. If the contact force between block and ground is 25n (in Newton) then value of n is : (Take g = 10 m//s^(2))

A block A of mass 2 kg rests on a horizontal surface. Another block B of mass 1 kg moving at a speed of m/s when at a distance of 16 cm from A. collides elastically with A. The coefficeint of friction between the horizontal surface and earth of the blocks is 0.2. Then (g = 10 m//s^(2))
