A gun is mounted on a wooden plank. The plank is stationary and is mounted on frictionless wheels. A heavy wooden block is set in front of the gun, and the gun is fired into the wooden block, which then slows to a stop due to friction between the block and the plank. 

a) The plank will have shifted position relative to its starting point. 

b) Momentum is not conserved because of the frictional force. 

c) The speed of the plank is zero immediately after the collision between the bullet and block. 

d) The plank does not move. 

e) Kinetic energy is conserved because the speed of the system is zero before and after the collision
