Homework Statement
a toy race car of mass m is released from rest on the loop-the-loop track. if it is released at a height 2R above the floor, how high is it above the floor when it leaves the track, neglecting friction?
(the radius of the loop is R)
Homework Equations
E=K+U
The Attempt at a Solution
there is not initial KE and no final KE
initial PE is mg2R and final PE is mgh
I just can't seem to put it all together, does this mean h=2R as well?
