You push a .50kg block against a spring (k=3100 N/m),compressing it by .12m. The block is then released from rest and the spring pushes the block away. The spring and the block lose contact and the block collides with a second block of twice the mass. The two blocks slide together down a frictionless track consisting of a flat straightaway and a vertical, semi-circle of radius 40cm. What is the speed of the blocks when they have travelled halfway up the semicircle part of the track? What is the magnitude of the normal force on the two blocks at that same location?

Central Force

Central force is the force that acts along the center of mass of one body to the center of mass of another body. Its direction from or away from a point on a body to another is called the center of the force. Such forces include gravitational force between two massive objects or electrostatic forces between two charged particles. So from atoms to planets, the central forces play an important role in shaping our daily lives. One of the remarkable features of central forces is that they are conservative, i.e. the total energy of a central force system can always be expressed as a gradient of a potential energy function.
