looking at a ski slope, the length of the slope is 10.00x10^2m and the top of the slope is at an angle of 8.00 degrees relative to the horizontal. Once the slope has ended the skier continues along a level horizontal before stopping. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the snow is 0.090 on both the slope and the straight horizontal section. What is the distance that the man travels on this horizontal section, assuming that the man started from the rest at the top of the slope.
