Question

can you please solve this problem in a piece of paper instead of typing it on the computer. i already asked this question but i didn't get it written on a paper.

8.83 A rifle bullet with mass 8.00 g
strikes and embeds itself in a block
with mass 0.992 kg that rests on a
frictionless, horizontal surface and is
attached to a coil spring (Fig. P8.83).
The impact compresses the spring 15.0 cm. Calibration of the
spring shows that a force of 0.750 N is required to compress the
spring 0.250 cm. (a) Find the magnitude of the block's velocity
just after impact. (b) What was the initial speed of the bullet?
