(choose chapter or problem)

A 10.0-g bullet is red into, and embeds itself in, a 2.00-kg block attached to a spring with a force constant of 19.6 N/m and whose mass is negligible. How far is the spring compressed if the bullet has a speed of 300 m/s just before it strikes the block and the block slides on a frictionless surface? [Note: You must use conservation of momentum in this problem. Why?]
