The background info is as follows: A block of mass 5 kg is initially at rest next to an ideal spring of spring constant 1000 N/s, as shown in the diagram. A second block of mass 2 kg approaches the first block at a velocity of 35 m/s, colliding with it and sticking to it at time t = 0 s. After the collision, the blocks move together in simple harmonic motion. Friction on the system is negligible
The question is asking "At what time after the collision will the two blocks first come to rest?"
