A massless spring with spring stiffness s = 20N/m is attached at one end of a block of mass M = 35kg that is resting on a frictionless horizontal table. The other end of the spring is fixed to a wall. A bullet of mass mb =500 g is fired into the block from the left with a speed v0 = 100 m/s and comes to rest in the block. (Assume that this happens instantaneously). The resulting motion of the block and bullet is simple harmonic motion. I. II. III. How fast is the block moving immediately after the bullet comes to rest? Find the angular frequency of vibration for the system? Find the maximum compression of the spring?

Find the maximum compression of the spring?
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.
