The roller coaster in Figure P6.36 starts with a velocity of 16.4ms. One of the riders is a small girl of mass 34 kg . At points B and C, the track is circular with the radii of curvature given in the figure. The heights at points A,B, and C are hA=24.5m,hB=34.85m, and hC=0m. You may assume the track is frictionless.
Find the velocity of the roller coaster at point B.
