Brian is designing a skate park and wants to build a curved ramp $($quarterpipe$)$ that leads skaters to a straight ramp.

Brian plans that skaters will drop into the quarterpipe from rest and launch off the straight ramp with a speed of $3\mathrm{.}7$

m$/$s$.$ If the height of the quarterpipe is $3\mathrm{.}0$ m$,$ what must the height of the straight ramp be$?$ Assume that the wheel

bearings are well$-$made and lubricated, so friction can be neglected.
