A bored boy shoots a soft pellet from an air gun at a piece of cheese with mass 0.25 kg that sits, keeping cool for dinner guests, on a block of ice. On one particular shot, his 1.2-g pellet gets stuck in the cheese, causing it to slide 25 cm before coming to a stop. According to the package the gun came in, the muzzle velocity is 65 m/s. What is the coefficient of friction between the cheese and the ice?
