A quick question, I remember my professor said to use the center of mass for solving the classic loop de loop problem. For example, he wanted us to use the distance from the surface of the loop to the center of the object (instead of just from the loop to the surface of the block) for the height in PE = mgh. Thinking back on this, it seems pretty weird that this was done. What do you guys think?
