A bullet of mass mhas a velocity just before it strikes the
tar
get of mass M.If the bullet embeds in the target, and the
shpot’s damping coefficient is , determine
springs’ maximum compression. The target is free to
ve along the two horizontal guides that are“nested” in
springs.

ince the springs are arranged in parallel, the equivalent stiffness of the single spring
ystem is .Also, when the bullet becomes embedded in the target,
.Thus, the natural circular frequency of the system
he equation that describes the underdamped system is
(1)
hen .Thus, Eq. (1) gives
ince .Then .Thus, Eq. (1) becomes
(2)
aking the time derivative of Eq. (2),
(3)
ince linear momentum is conserved along the horizontal during the impact, then
hen ,.Thus, Eq. (3) gives
s. (2) becomes
