    I don't believe this problem can be solved with the linited anount of information provided. We need to know:

    - mass of the cube
    - the type of collision between bullet and cube - is it elastic? Ineleastic? Or does the bullet penetrate the cube some distance?
    - the type of friction between cube and the floor - is it frictionless? Or does it have a static coefficient of friction that keeps it from sliding?
