Physics

A particle of mass 4.00 kg is attached to a spring with a forceconstant of 300 N/m. It is oscillating on a horizontal frictionlesssurface with an amplitude of 5.00 m. A 9.00 kg object is droppedvertically on top of the 4.00 kg object as it passes through itsequilibrium point. The two objects stick together.

a) By how much does the amplitude of the vibrating system changeas a result of collision?

b) By how much does the period change?

c) By how much does the energy change?
