Problem P. 4490. (December 2012)

P. 4490. A small body of mass m is placed to the top of a fixed hemisphere, and is tied by means of a rope to another body of mass M, which hangs vertically. The system is released, the small body of mass m slides along the hemisphere without friction. At which mass ratio m/M will the small body of mass m leave the surface of the hemisphere exactly at the angle of 45o? Where will the small body leave the hemisphere if M\llm, and where will it leave the surface if M\ggm?

Sorry, the solution is available only in Hungarian. Google translation

Megoldásvázlat. Ha \(\displaystyle \alpha=45^\circ\), \(\displaystyle m/M=7{,}1.\)

\(\displaystyle m\ll M\) esetén a függőlegestől mért szög \(\displaystyle \alpha=25{,}8^\circ\),

\(\displaystyle m\gg M\) esetén \(\displaystyle \alpha=48{,}2^\circ\).
