Regarding the validity of the law of conservation of energy,

A) it is valid for any situation in which Newtonian physics is valid, but is often incorrect outside of that range. B) it is valid in all situations except those situations involving heat. C) this law is a consequence of Newtonian physics, and so this law is valid in every known situation because Newtonian physics is valid in every known situation. D) it is valid in every known situation--including those situations in which Newtonian physics is not valid.

Energy and Momentum: An 8.0-g bullet is suddenly shot into a 4.0-kg block that is at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface, as shown in the figure. The bullet remains lodged in the block. The block then moves against a spring and compresses it by 3.7 cm. The force constant (spring constant) of the spring is 2500 N/m. What was the initial speed v of the bullet?

A. 460 m/s B. 440 m/s C. 480 m/s D. 500 m/s E. 520 m/s
