Q5) A frictionless slide is made out of a straight part which is connected to a segment of a circle of radius R= 5.87 m. The circle segment subtends and angle 0 = 15.8 degrees on each side of the vertical as shown in the figure. The slide ends on the right end of the circle segment. A block of mass m=2.90 kg starts from rest at a height h=20.9 m above the lowest part of the slide.
