A roller coaster travels without friction along a track and makes it through two loops while staying on the track. Find the starting height h for the block to just barele make around the first loop of radius R = 9.0 m. b) While at the top of the second smaller loop where R; = 7.0 m, what is the apparent weight of a passenger riding the coaster at the top of the 2 loop? c) If a spring system stops the car after completing the 2ª loop and compresses 0.25 m, what spring constant is required?
