A .430 kg block is attached to a horizontal spring that is at its equilibrium length, and whose force constant is 20 N/m. The block rests on a frictionles surface. A .500 kg wad of putty is thrown horizontally at the block, hitting it with a speed of 2.30 m/s and sticking. How far does the putty-block system compress the spring?
A 7.0g bullet is fired with an initial velocity of 528 m/s into a 1.5 kg ballistic pendulum of length 0.4m. The bullet emerges from the block with a speed of 200m/s, and the pendulum swings upward.
