Detailed Solution

A bullet is fired into a wall with a velocity of 50 m/s. If the bullet stops at the depth of 10 cm inside the wall, the retardation provided by the wall is 12500 m/s2.
Given that,
initial velocity = 50 m/s
final velocity = 0 m/s distance = 10 cm
              = 0.1m (As 100 cm = 1 m)
Acceleration, a is unknown
We know that, v2- u2=2as
Substituting the values in the above equation,
 0 – (50)2= 2 × a × 0.1
 0.2 a = -2500
Acceleration, = -12500 m/s2
Therefore, retardation (r) = -a
                                  r= 12500 m/s2
