A rifle bullet with mass 8.00 g and initial horizontal velocity
380 m/s strikes and embeds itself in a block with mass 0.992 kg
that rests on a frictionless surface and is attached to one end of
an ideal spring. The other end of the spring is attached to the

cm. After the impact, the block moves in SHM. Calculate the period
of this motion.
