    Rollercoasters and Loops and Normal Forces

    Homework Statement <I will attach a diagram below> In terms of m, g and r. FInd the normal force at the top of the loop. Homework Equations ∑F = Fc = FN+Fg ∴ Fc=FN+Fg ∴FN = Fc - Fg ∴ N=mV2/r - mg The Attempt at a Solution Fc=mV2/r - mg and V2=ra and a=g ∴C=mrg/r ∴C = mg ∴mg-mg=N ∴ N=0 N. BUT...
