A ski that is placed on snow will stick to the snow. However, when the ski is moved along the snow, the rubbing warms and partially melts the snow, reducing the coefficient of friction and promoting sliding. Waxing the ski makes it water repellent and reduces friction with the resulting layer of water. A magazine reports that a new type of plastic ski is especially water repellent and that, on a gentle 230 m slope in the Alps, a skier reduced his top-to-bottom time from 69 s with standard skis to 42 s with the new skis. Old skis acceleration = 0.097 m/s2 New skis acceleration = 0.26 m/s2 Assuming a 3.0° slope, compute the coefficient of kinetic friction for each case. Old skis _______ New skis
