What force is pulling the skier : Gravitational force : 9.8m/s^2 ?
What force is stopping the skier : Force of Friction : .11 Mew(k)
Does either of them depend on the angle: I am not sure unfortunately, possibly the force pulling the skier will depend on the angle most likely .
Homework Statement
A skier on a slope inclined at 4.7Degrees to the horizontal pushes on ski poles and starts down the slope. The initial speed is 2.7m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between skis and snow is 0.11. Determine how far the skier will slide before coming to rest...
