A9.00 g bullet is fired horizontally into a 1.20 kg wooden block resting on a horizontal surface. the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.20. the bullet remains embedded in the block, which is observed to slide 0.310 m along the surface before stopping. (a) what was teh initial speed of the bullet?
(b) what kind of collision took place between the bullet and the block? explain your answer comparing the values of the kinetic energy before and after the collision.
(c) calculate the impulse of the block from the moment just after the impact to his final position. analyze the result.

Emmy kicks a soccer ball up at an angle of 45° over a level field. she watches the ball's trajectory and notices that it lands, two seconds after being kicked, about 20 m away to the north. assume that air resistance is negligible, and plot the horizontal and vertical components of the ball's velocity as a function of time. consider only the time that the ball is in the air, after being kicked but before landing. take "north" and "up" as the positive ‑ and ‑directions, respectively, and use ≈10 m/s2 for the downward acceleration due to gravity.
