- A skater with mass 66 kg is skating on a horizontal surface at a constant speed 4.2 m/s. There is a ramp ahead, and the skater has just enough speed to make it to the top of the ramp (meaning the speed at the top of the ramp is 0 m/s). What is the height of the ramp in the unit of meters? Use g = 10 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.arrow_forwardAn object is hovering about the surface of the earth.
