A 10.0-kg mass is traveling to the right with a speed of 2.00 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface when it collides with and sticks to a second 10.0-kg mass that is initially at rest but is attached to a light spring that is neither stretched nor compressed with a force constant 80.0 N/m. The system undergoes SHM. A) Find the frequency, amplitude, the period of the subsequent oscillations and the phase angle. B) Find the maximum and minimum velocities and acceleration attained by the oscillating system C) How long does it take the system to return the first time to the position it had immediately after the collision? D) Write the equations for the displacement, velocity, and acceleration of the system as function of time

Definition Definition Special type of oscillation where the force of restoration is directly proportional to the displacement of the object from its mean or initial position. If an object is in motion such that the acceleration of the object is directly proportional to its displacement (which helps the moving object return to its resting position) then the object is said to undergo a simple harmonic motion. An object undergoing SHM always moves like a wave.
