A bullted of mass m embeds itself in a block of mass M resting on a smooth horizontal surface, attached to a spring of force constant k. If the initial sped of the bullet is `v_(0)` along horizontal, find (a) the maximum compression of the spring and (b) the time forthe bullet - block system to come to rest.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
