Mass of bullet m = \(\frac{10}{1000}\) = kg
= 0.001 Kg.
Initial velocity, u = 150ms-1
Final velocity v = 0 (since the bullet comes to rest)
Time t = 0.03 s.
From equation of motion
v = u + at
0 = 150 + a × 0.03
∴ a = \(\frac{-150}{0.03}\)
= -5000 ms-2
Magnitude of the force applied by the bullet on the block F = ma
= 0.01 × -5000 = -50N.
