$A$ small sphere rolls without slipping from the top of a vertical track. The track has an inclined part and a horizontal part. The horizontal part is $1.0 \ m$ above the ground,and the top of the track is $2.4 \ m$ above the ground. The sphere falls to the ground at point $E$. The horizontal distance from the point directly below $C$ to point $E$ is $R$. Find the value of $R$ in meters.
