In a ballistics demonstration, a police officer fires a bullet of mass \(50.0\) g with speed \(200\) m/s on soft plywood of thickness \(2.00\) cm. The bullet emerges with only \(\text{10%}\) of its initial kinetic energy. The emergent speed of the bullet is:
1. | \(0\) | 2. | \(53.2\) m/s |
3. | \(63.2\) m/s | 4. | \(6.32\) m/s |
