An 800kg roller coaster car is launched horizontally from a


An 800kg roller coaster car is launched horizontally from a giant spring (k = 35 kN/m), rolls 10 m and them goes thru a vertical loop of radius 7 m. If for every meter the car rolls on the track, thermal energy increases by 800 J, would compressing the spring 3 m give the car enough energy to safely get to the top of the loop?
