A 0.20-kg block slides from rest down a frictionless track from a height of 1.5 m, and encounters a loop that is 1.0 m high. (a) What is the speed of the block at the top of the loop? (b) The block is slowed by a spring at the bottom of the track. If the stiffness of the spring is 0.90 kN/m, how far does the block slide before coming to rest?
I have taken value of g as 9.8m/s^2 . If one takes the value of g as 10m/s^2, answer will vary a bit.
