The block of mass 0.5 kg is pushed against a horizontal spring and the spring is compressed by x. After it is released it moves along frictionless horizontal surface and reaches the point A with a speed of v_A = 11.0 m/s. The block experiences an average friction force of 6.0 N while sliding up the circular track. The radius of the track R=1.0 m. Can the block pass the top point (point B) without fall off of the track? В R k Yes. The block can safely turn the track. No. The block will reach the top, but it will fall off the track. Can not determine with the given information The block can only climb the quarter of the track. No. It will fall off before reaching the top.
