If a student approximates the force of friction as being proportional to the square of an object's velocity while analyzing its motion on a flat surface, how would this affect their calculated time for the object to come to rest compared to if they used the proper linear relationship?

If a block of mass m is released from rest at a height h above the bottom of a frictionless track and then slides into a loop-the-loop with radius r, what minimum height must h be so that the block just barely completes the loop without losing contact?
