A toy car shaped like a sphere with mass m and radius r is placed on a toy track that includes a vertical loop of radius R. Find the minimum height h from which the toy must start to complete the loop if (A) r<<R, (B) no assumption of r with R, assuming it rolls without slipping and there are no energy losses due to friction or air resistance.
