A 50 g bullet strikes a 5.5 kg box resting at the edge of a 1 m high table. The bullet remains embedded inside the box and the combination slides off the table onto the floor. If it lands 300 m from the base of the table, what was the velocity of the combination immediately after the collision?

A 10 g bullet is fired with 450 m/s into a 10 kg block that sits at rest on a wooden table 20 cm from the edge of the table. The bullet gets embedded in the block (perfectly inelastic collision). The block, with the embedded bullet, then slides to the edge of the table and drops down with some initial velocity while leaving the edge of the table. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface of...
