Question: [ Problems 1 through 1 8 ] The below figure shows a roller - coaster ride. A small cartwith mass being 2 0 0 kg

[Problems 1 through 18] The below figure shows a roller-coaster ride. A small cartwith mass being 200 kg is initially located at position O. The cart is then elevated toposition A by a conveyor belt with a constant speed of2 m/s and comes to a stop. It isthen released with a negligible speed and falls down along the track, passing positions B, C,D, and E. After passing E, it reaches the maximum height and comes back to the initialposition O. From position O to position T, a non-zero friction is applied to stop the cart atT. Assume that no friction or air resistance works over the entire roller-coaster track exceptfor the region between O and T and the gravitational acceleration g is 9.81 m/s2.OABCDET
