Question: A 1 5 . 0 g bullet ( m ) moving directly upward at 1 2 0 0 ( m ) / ( s )

A 15.0 g bullet (m) moving directly upward at 1200
(m)/(s) strikes and passes through the center of mass of a 6.00 kg wood block (M) initially at
rest. The bullet emerges from the block moving directly upward at 400( m)/(s). You may
ignore gravity during the collision since it happens in a very short period of time.
