Question

A ball of mass m = 450 g is placed in a bowl of mass M = 1.50 kg, which is attached to a massless spring. The bowl is pushed to the right to compress the spring, and then let go. The radius of the ball is r = 0.750 cm, and the bowl is shaped like a portion of a sphere of radius R = 20.0 cm. What should the spring constant of the spring be if you want the ball to jump out of the bowl? (Ignore friction between all surfaces, all heat losses, and any other nonconservative forces that may come into play.) A ball of mass m = 450 g is placed in a bowl of mass M = 1.50 kg, which is attached to a massless spring. The bowl is pushed to the right to compress the spring, and then let go. The radius of the ball is r = 0.750 cm, and the bowl is shaped like a portion of a sphere of radius R = 20.0 cm. All surfaces are frictionless.
