Physics Collisions Level: Misc Level

A bullet of mass 100 g is fired horizontally into a 14.9 kg block of wood resting on a horizontal surface, with the bullet becoming embedded in the block.If the muzzle velocity of the bullet is 250 m/s, what is the velocity of the block containing the bullet immediately after the collision? If the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is 0.60, how far will the block slide before coming to rest?
