b) A rifle has a mass M of 3.8kg. A bullet (m = 0.008 kg) is fired vertically upwards from the gun at a muzzle velocity U of 720 m/s. (1) Neglecting air resistance, determine the maximum height Zof the bullet. [2] Assume that the drag force F on the bullet due to air resistance can be described by the equation: F=- k V2 where Vis the instantaneous speed of the bullet, and, k = 1.0x10 kg/m.
