JEE Main 4 August 2021, Shift 2, Physics Q25

Question 25 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 25 of 30, Section B.

A small solid spherical marble of mass M and radius 5 cm rolls along loop track without slipping. The height above the base, from where it has to start rolling down incline such that the sphere just completes the vertical circular loop of radius 25 cm is _________ cm. (g = 10 m/s2^2)

The figure, in words

A curved track descends from a point at height h (h marked with a vertical dashed line down to a horizontal dashed base line) and joins the bottom of a vertical circular loop; the loop’s radius is marked 25.
