In class we solved the following example problem: The 0.5 lb pellet is pushed against the spring and released from rest at A. Neglecting friction, determine the smallest deflection of the spring for which the pellet will travel around the loop and always remain in contact with the loop. Now, solve the same problem to determine the smallest deflection of the spring required if the section AB has a length of 2 feet and has a coefficient of friction of 0.25 (the section BD is frictionless).

Problem #3. A mass of 1238.4 kg is released from a rest at position A on a semicircular track of radius r1 = 1.7 m that is connected to a circular looped track of radius r2 = 1.2 m as shown in the figure below (not drawn to scale, arrows indicate the direction that the mass travels). The track is frictionless except for a segment between B and C that is 1.0 m long, where it has a coefficient of static friction of 0.2 and a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.3. A. Determine the speed (in m/s) of the mass at position A. B. Determine the speed (in m/s) of the mass at position C. C. If the mass is to remain on the track at all times (including at position D), determine the minimum speed (in m/s) that the mass must have at position C."
