A 30-g bullet traveling horizontally at 300 m/s strikes a 1.0-kg block which is attached to a horizontal spring with a force constant of 2000 N/m and rests on a frictionless horizontal surface

The spring is on the far side of the block and aligned with the direction of travel of the bullet. The bullet becomes embedded in the block and, as a result of the impact, and the block slides against the spring. How far is the spring compressed before it reverses its direction of travel? A) 0.20 m B) 0.58 m C) 1.2 m D) 0.40 m E) 0.039 m
