Homework Statement
A 60 kg skier is beginning her descent down a 26 degree slope. The frictional force between the skis and the snow is 4 N
a) What is the gravitational force the skier exerts on the slope?
b) What is the normal force the slope exerts back on the skier?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
a) What is the gravitational force the skier exerts on the slope?
60(kg)*9.8(m/s^2)*cos(26) = 528.5(N)
b) What is the normal force the slope exerts back on the skier?
