A 2.0 kg box is traveling at 5.0 m/s on a smooth horizontal surface when it collides with and sticks to a stationary 6.0 kg box. The larger box is attached to an ideal spring of force constant (spring constant) 150 N/m, as shown in the figure. Find
(a) the amplitude of the resulting oscillations of this system,
(b) the frequency of the oscillations and
(c) the period of the oscillations.
