Chapter 13.3, Problem 13.144P
A 28-g steel-jacketed bullet is fired with a velocity of 650 m/s toward a steel plate and ricochets along path CD with a velocity of 500 m/s. Knowing that the bullet leaves a 50-mm scratch on the surface of the plate and assuming that it has an average speed of 600 m/s while in contact with the plate, determine the magnitude and direction of the impulsive force exerted by the plate on the bullet.
