A 2.5-g bullet traveling at 350 m/s hits a tree and slowsuniformly to a stop while penetrating a distance of 12 cm into thetree's trunk. What force was exerted on the bullet in bringing itto rest?

Answer: -1.3 X 10^3 N

A bullet is aimed at a target on the wall a distance "L" awayfromthe firing position. Because of gravity, the strikes the wallat adistance ?y.

If the distance L was half as large and the bullet had thesameinitial velocity, how would ?y be affected?

A. ?y will double
B. ?y will be half as large
C. ?y will be four time larger
D. ?y will be one fourth as large
E.
