A bullet having mass m and velocity v collides with a block at rest having mass M. Mass M is attached to a spring


A bullet having mass m and velocity v collides with a block at rest having mass M. Mass M is attached to a spring which is at its equilibrium position and has a spring constant k. Calculate the compression of the spring when the bullet-mass system comes to rest if: m(kg) M(K) v(m/s) k(N/m) 1.50E-02 5.00E+00 2.50E+02 1.50E+01 Make sure to express your answer in scientific notation with 2 decimal points.
