Ablock of mass M s attached to a spring with spring constant k | initially at rest at its equilibrium length. It is disturbed when a pellet of mass m, moving with speed v, collides with the block and becomes embedded in it. (See the diagram below.) b PartA PartB b PartC PartD How far does the spring compress if there's a coefficient of kinetic friction u between the table and the block? (Remember, answers to symbol problems aren't necessarily pretty!) Give your answer in terms of variables defined in the problem, along with any constants you need.
