Answer:I had two questions: 1) Shouldnt the equation be : Change of internal energy= Change in Ke or KEi +Ui=KEf+Uf .. I cant seem to understand how the change in KE+ Change in Internal Energy equals 0 2) Also, it has a note which says that if the bullet alone was chosen as a system, then work would be done on it and the heat transfer woudl occur. How would one formulate an equation for this?
