A 12.0-g piece of clay is launched horizontally at a 102-g wooden block that is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface and connected to a spring having spring constant 52 N/m. The piece of clay sticks to the side of the block. If the clay-block system compresses the spring by a maximum of 10.0 cm, what was the speed of the piece of clay at impact with the block?
