Momentum and CollisionEasy

Question

A bullet of mass m moving with velocity v strikes a block of mass M at rest and gets embedded into it. The kinetic energy of the composite block will be :-

Options

A.mv2 ×
B.mv2 ×
C.mv2 ×
D.Mv2 ×

Solution

From momentum conservation law
mV = (M + m)V′
V′ =
so    KE = (M + m)V′2 = mv2
