Uniform Circular Motion: A particularly scary roller coaster contains a loop-the-loop in which the car and rider are completely upside down. If the radius of the loop is 13.2 m, with what minimum speed must the car traverse the loop so that the rider does not fall out while upside down at the top? Assume the rider is not strapped to the car.

A point charge Q1 = +6.0 nC is at the point (0.30 m, 0.00 m); a charge Q2 = -1.0 nC is at (0.00 m, 0.10 m),
and a charge Q3 = +5.0 nC is at (0.00 m, 0.00 m). What are the magnitude and direction of the net force exerted on the +5.0-nC charge by the other two charges? (k = 1/4??0 = 9.0 × 109 N ? m2/C2 )
