A 20-g bullet is fired into a 2.0-kg block of wood placed on a horizontal surface.The bullet stops in the block.The impact moves the block (+ bullet) a distance of 5 m before it comes to rest.If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and surface is 0.25,calculate the speed of the block (+ bullet) system immediately after impact.
