<span>While
modern humans first evolved approximately 200,000 years ago,
the age of
the Earth, the Sun, and the rest of the solar system is believed
to be approximately 4.6 billion years.
That makes the Earth, the Sun, and the rest of the solar system
something like 23 thousand times as old as the human species !

The distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is 0.16 m.
The given parameters;
- <em>mass of the bullet, m = 23 g = 0.023 g</em>
- <em>speed of the bullet, u = 230 m/s</em>
- <em>mass of the wood, m = 2 kg</em>
- <em>final speed of the bullet, v = 170 m/s</em>
- <em>coefficient of friction, μ = 0.15</em>
The final velocity of the wood after the bullet hits is calculated as follows;

The acceleration of the wood is calculated as follows;

The distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is calculated as follows;

Thus, the distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is 0.16 m.
