Detailed Solution

Balancing frictional force for centripetal force, mv2r=f=μN=μmg

Where, N is normal reaction,            v=μrg(where, r is radius of the circular track)

For path ABC, path length =34(2π2R)=3πR=3π×100=300  πm

v1=μ2Rg=0.1×2×100×10=14.14ms1

  t1=300π14.14=66.6s

For path DEF, Path length =14(2πR)=π×1002=50π

v2=μRg=0.1×100×10=10ms1

t2=50π10=5πs=157s

For paths CD and FA.
Path length = R + R = 2R = 200 m
t3=20050=4.0s

  Total time for completing one round, t=t1+t2+t3=66.6+157+4.0=86.3s
