Homework Statement
A skier is sliding down a 20o slope at constant speed, what is the kinetic friction coefficient?
Homework Equations
E = 1/2 mv2
W = Fd
F = ma
F = μN = μmg
The Attempt at a Solution
Attempted to use ma = μmgsin20, which crosses out the masses since mass was not given, but the skier is going at a constant speed so I'm assuming acceleration would be zero. Though I'm not sure how to continue the question or if I'm on the right track. Thanks in advance!
