The value of normal force as the slider passes point B is
- 6 mg
The value of h when the normal force is zero
- 3R/2
The normal force is calculated using the work energy principle which is applied as below
K₁ + U₁ = K₂
k represents kinetic energy
U represents potential energy
the subscripts 1,2 , and 3 = a, b, and c
for 1 to 2
K₁ + W₁ = K₂
0 + mg(h + R) = 0.5mv²₂
g(h + R) = 0.5v²₂
v²₂ = 2g(1.5R + R)
v²₂ = 2g(2.5R)
v²₂ = 5gR
Using summation of forces at B
Normal force, N = ma + mg
N = m(a + g)
N = m(v²₂/R + g)
N = m(5gR/R + g)
N = 6mg
for 1 to 3
K₁ + W₁ = K₃ + W₃
0 + mgh = 0.5mv²₃ + mgR
gh = 0.5v²₃ + gR
0.5v²₃ = gh - gR
v²₃ = 2g(h - R)
at C
for normal force to be zero
ma = mg
v²₃/R = g
v²₃ = gR
and v²₃ = 2g(h - R)
gR = 2gh - 2gR
gR + 2gR = 2gh
3gR = 2gh
3R/2 = h

Answer:
The compression in the spring is 5.88 meters.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of the car, m = 39000 kg
Height of the car, h = 19 m
Spring constant of the spring,
We need to find the compression in the spring in stopping the ore car. It can be done by balancing loss in gravitational potential energy and the increase in elastic energy. So,
x is the compression in spring
So, the compression in the spring is 5.88 meters.
