A bullet hits and gets embedded in a solid block resting on a frictionless surface. In this process, which of the following is correct ?

A bullet gets embedded in a wooden block. Where does its KE go?

A wooden block of mass 10 gm is dropped from the top of a cliff 100 m high. Simultaneously a bullet of same mass is fired from the foot of the cliff vertically upwards with a velocity of 100 ms^(-1) . If the bullet after collision gets embedded in the block, the common velocity of the bullet and the block immediately after collision is (g=10 ms^(-2)) .

A block of wood of mass 3M is suspended by a string of length (10)/(3) m . A bullet of mass M hits it with a certain velocity and gets embedded in it. The block and the bullet swing to one side till the string makes 120^@ with the initial position. the velocity of the bullet is (g=10 ms^(-2)) .

A 2.0-kg pistol fires a 1.0-g bullet with a muzzle speed of 1000 m/s. The bullet then strikes a 10-kg wooden block resting on a horizontal frictionless surface. The block and the embedded bullet then slide across the surface. What is the speed of the "bullet + block" system immediately after the bullet is embedded in the block?

A 2.0-kg pistol fires a 1.0-g bullet with a muzzle speed of 1000 m/s. The bullet then strikes a 10-kg wooden block resting on a horizontal frictionless surface. The block and the embedded bullet then slide across the surface. What is the kinetic energy of the bullet as it travels toward the block?
