A 0.0220 kg bullet moving horizontally at 400 m/s embeds itself into an initially stationary 0.500 kg block. A. What is their velocity (in m/s)

A 0.0220 kg bullet moving horizontally at 400 m/s embeds itself into an initially stationary 0.500 kg block.

A. What is their velocity (in m/s) just after the collision?

B. The bullet-embedded block slides 8.0 m on a horizontal surface with a 0.30 kinetic coefficient of friction. Now what is its velocity (in m/s)?

C. The bullet-embedded block now strikes and sticks to a stationary 2.00 kg block. How far (in m) does this combination travel before stopping?
