Serway & Jewett β€” Linear Momentum and Collisions: Problem 16

A 7.00-g bullet, when fired from a gun into a 1.00-kg block of wood held in a vise, penetrates the block to a depth of 8.00 cm. This block of wood is next placed on a frictionless horizontal surface, and a second 7.00-g bullet is fired from the gun into the block. To what depth will the bullet penetrate the block in this case?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 8.00 cm
