Question:
The Summit Plummet is an extreme water slide—one of the steepest and fastest in the world. Riders drop 36 m from the start until they hit a run-out at the bottom. The slide is steep and slippery, so assume that you can ignore friction and drag forces.
a. If you give yourself a good push at the start, so that you begin your plunge moving at 2.0 m/s, how fast are you moving when you get to the bottom?
b. How fast would you be moving if you skipped the push?
I know the answers are:
a. 27 m/s
b. 27 m/s
How do solve these?
