Physics HELP!
A 2.00-g bullet hits and becomes embedded in a 5.00-kg wood block which is hanging from a 1.40-m long string. This causes the block to swing through an arc of 4.50. What was the speed of the bullet before it hit the block?
I tried to set the masses equal to each other and then use cos for 4.50 in an attempt to find v not
