Determine the speed of the collar at point B

In the diagram below, a collar with mass m is attached to a spring with spring constant k and an unstretched length lo. The collar moves along a smooth rail that is oriented vertically. The top part of the rail is bent in a circular shape with a radius R and a center of curvature at point and the bottom part of the rail is straight and vertical with a length d as shown in the diagram. When the collar is at point A, the collar is moving at a speed v A to the right. Determine the speed of the collar at point B. Use the values in the table below.


Hint
EngineeringSpeed is calculated by dividing the discovered by time that is; speed= distance/time. To know what the units are for the speed one has to know the dtime and distance units. For instance time is in seconds (s) and distance in metres (m) thus the units are going to be in m/s....
