A spring has an unstretched length of 0.31 m. A block with mass 0.23 kg is hung at rest from the spring, and the spring becomes 0.37 m long. Next the spring is stretched to a length of 0.43 m and the block is released from rest. Air resistance is negligible. How long does it take for the block to return to where it was released?

Next the block is again positioned at rest, hanging from the spring (0.37 m long). A bullet of mass 3.0 g traveling at a speed of 193 m/s straight upward buries itself in the block, which then reaches a maximum height h above its original position. What is the speed of the block immediately after the bullet hits?

*How high does the block go after being hit by the bullet? (In other words, calculate h.)

(Please explain the third question by details)

Consider a mass m attached to a spring of unstretched length `0. The top of the spring is attached to the ceiling. The mass is stretched down a distance r from it’s unstretched equilibrium length, while at the same time the spring is inclined at an angle θ with respect the the vertical. This makes the spring an elastic pendulum, where not only the angle changes, but also the length! Determine the equations of motion of this pendulum (Hint: there...
