Question
A 84.04-kg skier with an initial speed of vi=39.55 m/s coasts up a H=12.44-m-high rise. The slope angle is theta=16. What is her final speed at the top? Assume the coefficient of friction between her skis and the snow is 0.123 (Hint: Find the distance traveled up the incline assuming a straight-line path as shown in the figure.) Use g = 10 m/s2.
