A small remote-controlled car with mass 1.60 kg moves at a constant speed of v = 12.0 m/s in a track formed by a vertical circle inside a hollow metal cylinder that has a radius of 5.00 m. What is the magnitude of the normal force exerted on the car by the walls of the cylinder at (a) point A (bottom of the track) and (b) point B (top of the track)?
