../../../../../_images/HotWheelsLoop.png

A child creates a track to play with their toy car. The toy car has a mass of \(m = {{ params_m }} \ \rm{kg}\) and goes down a drop with height \(h\) which ends with a loop, before continuing onto a flat track. The loop has a radius of \(r = {{ params_r }} \ \rm{m}\). The child has no clue how high the track must start for the car to make it fully through the loop without dropping.

Part 1#
