    A skier, starting from rest, coasts down a slope that makes a 25.0o angle with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the snow and the skis is 0.200. The skier travels along the slope a distance of 11.4 m before skiing off the edge of a cliff. The skier falls a vertical distance of 3.80 m before landing on another downhill slope. Determine the speed with which the skier lands.

    A sled is being pulled by a dog on a horizontal surface. Are the following statements true or false? Explain your answer If there is no friction between the sled and the surface (dog has friction) the sled will move no matter how little force the dog applies on the sled. When there is friction the coefficient of static friction remains the same as the force applied by the dog increases until the sled starts to move. Once the sled...
