QUESTION 5 The following three questions refer to this problem: A bullet with a mass of 10 g is shot at block of wood with an initial speed of 600 m/s. The block of wood is initially at rest. It passes through the block of wood, and emerges with a speed of 100 m/s. The wood block sits on a frictionless surface, and immediately after the collision, you measure its speed to be 0.95 m/s. What was the mass of the block of wood? You can ignore any reduction in mass due to the bullet passing through the block of wood.
QUESTION 6 How much kinetic energy is lost during the collision (i.e., the bullet passing through the block of wood)? Enter your answer as a positive number, since the question has already specified that the kinetic energy has been lost. 4 points Save Answer
QUESTION 7 What type of collision would you classify this as? Be sure that you can justify your answer to yourself. O elastic O inelastic O completely inelastic Onone of the above
