A small object of mass 5 kg starts at rest at the position shown and slides along the frictionless loop-the-loop track of radius 10.75 m. What is the smallest value of y (in m) such that the object will slide without losing contact with the track?

A small circular object with mass $m$ and radius $r$ has a moment of inertia given by $I=\mathrm{cmr}^{2}$. The object rolls without slipping along the track shown in the figure. The track ends with a ramp of height $R=2.50 \mathrm{~m}$ that launches the object vertically. The object starts from a height $H=6.00 \mathrm{~m}$. To what maximum height will it rise after leaving the ramp if $c=0.400 ?$
