Question:

A 75.0-kg skier starts from rest and slides down a 32.0-m frictionless slope that is inclined at an angle of 15.0° with the horizontal. Ignore air resistance.
(a) Calculate the work done by gravity on the skier and the work done by the normal force on the skier.
(b) If the slope is not frictionless so that the skier has a final velocity of 10.0 m/s, calculate the work done by gravity, the work done by the normal force, the work done by friction, the force of friction (assuming it is constant), and the coefficient of kinetic friction.
