A roller coaster car of mass 900 kg when released from rest at point A (height h above the ground) slides along the track and inside the loop of radius 15.0 m. The car never loses contact with the track. Draw below a free body diagram for the car at the bottom of the loop. If the speed of the car at the bottom of the loop (point B) is 25 m/s, what is the normal force at that point?...
