Question
A bullet fired into a fixed wooden block loses half of its velocity after penetration 40 cm. it comes to rest after penetrating a further distance of
The correct answer is: 
Let initial velocity of body a point
is
is 40 cm.
From 


Let on penetrating 40 cm in a wooden block, the body moves
distance from 
So, for
