$A$ block of mass $M = 1 \ kg$ is released from rest at the top of a smooth track of radius $R = 40 \ m$. The block slides along the track without toppling,and a frictional force acts on it in the direction opposite to the instantaneous velocity. The work done in overcoming the friction up to the point $Q$ (where the radius makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal),as shown in the figure,is $150 \ J$. (Take the acceleration due to gravity,$g = 10 \ m s^{-2}$)
$1.$ The speed of the block when it reaches the point $Q$ is:
$(A) 5 \ m s^{-1}$ $(B) 10 \ m s^{-1}$ $(C) 10\sqrt{3} \ m s^{-1}$ $(D) 20 \ m s^{-1}$
$2.$ The magnitude of the normal reaction that acts on the block at the point $Q$ is:
$(A) 7.5 \ N$ $(B) 8.6 \ N$ $(C) 11.5 \ N$ $(D) 22.5 \ N$

$A$ bead of mass $m$ slides without friction on the wall of a vertical circular hoop of radius $R$ as shown in the figure. The bead moves under the combined action of gravity and a massless spring of constant $k$ attached to the bottom of the hoop. The natural (equilibrium) length of the spring is $R$. If the bead is released from the top of the hoop with negligible initial speed,what is the velocity of the bead when the length of the spring becomes $R$? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)
