A block of mass m = 1 kg is released from rest at the top of a smooth hemispherical bowl of radius R = 2 m. Lying at the bottom of the bowl there is a second block of mass m = 1 kg. Assuming the surface of the bowl is frictionless, find: If the masses stick together after they collide, how high above the bottom of the bowl will the two masses go before starting to slide back down? 1.5 m 2 m 0.1 m 0.5 m 1 m
