A bullet of mass 20 g travelling horizontally with a speed of 500 m/s passes through a wooden block of mass 10.0 kg initially at rest on a level surface. The bullet emerges with a speed of 100 m/s and the block slides 20 cm on the surface before coming to rest. Find the friction coefficient between the block and the surface (See figure).

उत्तर
It is given that:
Mass of bullet, m = 20 g =0.02 kg
The initial speed, v1 = 500 m/s
Mass of block, M = 10 kg
The initial speed of block = 0
Final velocity of bullet, v2= 100 m/s
Let the final velocity of block when the bullet emerges out = v'
Applying conservation of linear momentum,
mv1 + M × 0 = mv2 + Mv'
⇒ 0.02 × 500 = 0.02 × 100 + 10 × v'
⇒ v' = 0.8 m/s
Distance covered by the block, d = 20 cm = 0.02 m .
Let friction coefficient between the block and the surface = μ
Thus, the value of friction force,\[F = \mu mg\]
Change in K.E. of block = Work done by the friction force
\[\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \times M \times 0 - \frac{1}{2} \times M \times \left( v' \right)^2 = \mu \text{mgd}\]
\[ \Rightarrow 0 - \left( \frac{1}{2} \right) \times 10 \times (0 . 8 )^2 = \mu \times 10 \times 10 \times 0 . 2\]
\[ \Rightarrow \mu = 0 . 16\]

A man of mass M having a bag of mass m slips from the roof of a tall building of height H and starts falling vertically in the following figure. When at a height h from the ground, the notices that the ground below him is pretty hard, but there is a pond at a horizontal distance x from the line of fall. In order to save himself he throws the bag horizontally (with respect to himself) in the direction opposite to the pond. Calculate the minimum horizontal velocity imparted to the bag so that the man lands in the water. If the man just succeeds to avoid the hard ground, where will the bag land?
