If a toy car is on a circular hot-wheels track with a radius of 25.0 cm, and the speed
of the car is 1.60 m/s. What is the centripetal acceleration of the car? And if the car
has a mass of 18 grams, what is the net force required to keep the car on the track?
If the same toy car were now traveling through a vertical loop with a radius of 25.0
cm. What would be the minimum speed at the top of the loop required to keep the
car from falling out of the loop?
