(5 pts )10. A bullet with mass 0.040 kg is traveling horizontally with a speed v0 when it strikes a wooden block that has mass 2.96 kg . The bullet remains embed in the block and the block with the bullet in it (total mass 2.00 kg ) slides 2.00 m on a horizontal surface before it comes to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is k=0.40, what was the speed of the bullet just before it struck the block?
(a)100ms
(b)150ms
(c)200ms
(d)250ms
