9. A hunter has a machine gun that can fire 50g bullets with a velocity of
150 ms–1. A 60 kg tiger springs
at him with a velocity of 10 ms–1 How many bullets must the
hunter fire into the target so as to stop
him in his track?
10. A bullet of mass 0.01 kg is fired horizontally into a 4 kg wooden block at
rest on a horizontal surface.

0.25. The bullets gets
embedded in the block and the combination moves 20m before coming to
rest. With what speed
did the bullet strike the block?
