$A$ particle of mass $m$ is released from a height $H$ on a smooth curved surface which ends into a vertical loop of radius $R$,as shown. Choose the correct alternative$(s)$ if $H = 2R$.

  • A
    The particle reaches the top of the loop with zero velocity.
  • B
    The particle cannot reach the top of the loop.
  • C
    The particle breaks off at a height $R < h < 2R$.
  • D
    Both $(B)$ and $(C)$.
