2. The 200 gram toy car will be compressed against the spring and released to send it around the loop which has diameter of 60 cm. Determine minimum required spring compression to maintain contact with the track for the entire loop. First use kinetics to determine minimum velocity at the top of the track, and then apply conservation of energy. Spring constant is 400 N/m.
