Answer:

u= 755 m/s

Explanation:

Lets take

Velocity of bullet = u m/s

The velocity of system after collision ,v= 5 m/s

m= 10 g = 0.01 kg

M= 1.5 kg

From linear momentum conservation( because there is no any external force on the system)

Pi= Pf

m u  = ( m +m) v

0.01 x u= (1.5 + 0.01) x 5

u= 755 m/s

You lift a 50 N object 2 meters off the ground what work did you do on the object
mixer [17]
Work equals force × displacement (distance between initial point and end point is displacement)
if u follow this it becomes
work = 50 × 2 which is equal to 100
