A bullet of mass \(10\ g\) travelling horizontally with a velocity of \(150\ m\ s^{–1}\) strikes a stationary wooden block and comes to rest in \(0.03\ s\). Calculate the distance of penetration of the bullet into the block. Also calculate the magnitude of the force exerted by the wooden block on the bullet.
From the Equation of motion -I, We know that,
From the Equation of motion -III, We know that,
From the Newton's second law, We know that,
Distance of penetration \(=\) \(m\)
Force \(=\) \(N\)
