A small bead of mass M slides on a smooth wire that is bent in a circle of radius R. It is released at the top of the circular part of the wire (point A in the figure) witha negligibly small velocity. Find the height H where the bead will reverse direction. why is the answer 2R and not 5R/2 bcoz the min velocity needed for it to follow the path makes it work out to be 5R/2 (considerning min velocity for req centripetal force and initial potential energy)
