$A$ bullet of mass $0.02 \ kg$ travelling horizontally with velocity $250 \ ms^{-1}$ strikes a block of wood of mass $0.23 \ kg$ which rests on a rough horizontal surface. After the impact,the block and bullet move together and come to rest after travelling a distance of $40 \ m$. The coefficient of sliding friction of the rough surface is $\left(g=9.8 \ ms^{-2}\right)$

Two wooden blocks of mass $M_1$ and $M_2$ rest on a frictionless table. $A$ bullet of mass $m$ is fired at $M_1$ with speed $v$,which gets embedded in it,and the two together finally collide with $M_2$. Find the velocity of $M_2$ after the collision. (Assume the collision between the $(M_1+m)$ system and $M_2$ is elastic and treat the problem as one-dimensional.)
