A small block slides down a frictionless ramp and around a vertical loop of radius 1.00-m, centered as shown at a height of 2.00-m above the base. Determine the minimum height, H, from which the block can be released on the ramp and still make it around the circular loop. Ignore the thickness of the block. {Hint. Find minimum KE at B using ∑Fn = mg and then use EA = EB}

As shown in the figure below, a block of mass m is compressed into a spring of force constant k and then released. The block then moves along a frictionless surface hitting another block of same mass m located at the entry of a vertical frictionless loop track of radius R. The two blocks stick together and move around the loop. As they exit, they encounter a frictional surface with kinetic friction coefficient μk. a. During the collision is momentum conserved? And is the collision elastic or inelastic? Explain. All your answers to the questions below should be in terms of the given quantities m, k, R, μk, and g. b. Find the minimum spring compression distance s for the blocks to traverse the vertical loop without falling off the track. c. For the spring compression found in part b., calculate the distance L traveled by the pair of blocks before stopping.
