An ice cube is placed on top of an overturned spherical bowl of radius r, as indicated in Figure 8-42. If the ice cube slides downward from rest at the top of the bowl, at what angle θ does it separate from the bowl? In other words, at what angle does the normal force between the ice cube and the bowl go to zero?

In the figure, two satellites, A and B, both of mass m = 49.1 kg, move in the same circular orbit of radius r = 7410 km around Earth (mass ME = 5.98×1024 kg) but in opposite senses of rotation and therefore on a collision course. (a) Find the total mechanical energy EA+ EB of the two satellites + Earth system before the collision. (b) If the collision is completely inelastic so that the wreckage remains as one piece of tangled material (mass = 2m), find the total mechanical energy immediately after the collision. (c) Just after the collision, is the wreckage falling directly toward Earth’s center or orbiting around Earth?

The 100 kg sphere A is released from rest at an angle of α from the vertical, and hits the 10 kg block B (initially at rest), causing block B to have an initial velocity of 5 m/s as it enters the circular ramp (radius = 5 m) and stop temporarily at a final height h. The coefficient of restitution between sphere A and the block B is 0.6. Assume all surfaces are frictionless. Also assume direct impact between A and B.
