In the figure here, a solid brass ball of mass 0.211 g will roll smoothly along a loop-the-loop track when released from rest along the straight section. The circular loop has radius R = 0.14 m, and the ball has radius r ≪ R. (a) What is h if the ball is on the verge of leaving the track when it reaches the top of the loop? (b) If the ball is released at height h = 5R, what is the magnitude of the horizontal force component acting on the ball at point Q?

In the figure, a small block of mass m = 0.014 kg can slide along the frictionless loop-the-loop, with loop radius R = 11 cm. The block is released from rest at point P, at height h = 5 R above the bottom of the loop. What are the magnitudes of (a) the horizontal component and (b) the vertical component of the net force acting on the block at point Q? (c) At what height h should the block be released from rest so that it is on the verge of losing contact with the track at the top of the loop? (On the verge of losing contact means that the normal force on the block from the track has just then become zero).
