A small rock with mass 0.20 kg is released from rest at point A, which is at the top edge of a large, hemispherical bowl with radius R = 0.50 m. Assume that the size of the rock is small compared to R, so that the rock can be treated as a particle, and assume the rock slides rather then rolls. The work done by friction on the rock when it moves from point A to point B at the...
