A bullet of mass 0.01 kg is fired horizontally into a 4 kg wooden block at rest on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of the kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.25. the bullet gets embedded in the block and the combination moves 20 m before coming to rest. With what speed did the bullet strike the block ?
