(a) How much work does the gravitational force do on the block as the block travels from point P to point Q? J (b) How much work does the gravitational force do on the block as the block travels from point P to the top of the loop? J If the gravitational potential energy of the block-Earth system is taken to be zero at the bottom of the loop, find the following. (c) the potential energy when the block is at point P J (d) the potential energy when the block is at point Q (e) the potential energy when the block is at the top of the loop J (f) If, instead of being released, the block is given some initial speed downward along the track, do the answers to (a) through (e) increase, decrease, or remain the same? increase decrease remain the same
