A 13.1-g bullet is fired into a block of wood at 245 m/s. The block is attached to a spring that has a spring constant of 205 N/m. The block and bullet continue to move, compressing the spring by 35.0 cm before the whole system momentarily comes to a stop. Assuming that the surface on which the block is resting is frictionless, determine the mass of the wooden block.
