for 20 POINTS) A student is trying to determine the muzzle velocity (initial) of a bullet that is too fast to measure directly. The student fires the 0.03kg bullet into a 6kg block of wood initially at rest. After the collision, the block, with the bullet embedded inside moves to the right with a speed of 1.29m/s right.
what is the momentum before the collision of both the bullet and the block?
what is the momentum after the collision of both the bullet and the block?
how fast was the bullet fired?
