Shadows are formed when an opaque object or an object that doesn't allow light to pass through is in the way or infront of etc. a source of light.
Explanation:
(a) Draw a free body diagram of the cylinder at the top of the loop. At the minimum speed, the normal force is 0, so the only force is weight pulling down.
Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:
∑F = ma
mg = mv²/RL
v = √(g RL)
(b) Energy is conserved.
EE = KE + RE + PE
½ kd² = ½ mv² + ½ Iω² + mgh
kd² = mv² + Iω² + 2mgh
kd² = mv² + (m RC²) ω² + 2mg (2 RL)
kd² = mv² + m RC²ω² + 4mg RL
kd² = mv² + mv² + 4mg RL
kd² = 2mv² + 4mg RL
kd² = 2m (v² + 2g RL)
d² = 2m (v² + 2g RL) / k
d = √[2m (v² + 2g RL) / k]

<u>Hydroelectric power,</u> also called hydropower is the electricity produced from generators driven by turbines that convert the potential energy of falling or fast-flowing water into mechanical energy.
Average speed= total distance/total time =12km/h
