The concepts used to solve this problem are potential energy, conservation of energy and kinetic energy.
Initially, use the potential energy and kinetic energy of the skateboard that reaches at the highest point on the right side of the ramp. Then, use the principle of conservation of energy to compare the kinetic and potential energy to find the height of the skateboard that reaches at the highest point.
There is no friction acts on the skateboard. When the skateboard reaches the top on the right side of the ramp, it gains kinetic energy.
The expression for the kinetic energy of the skateboard is,
Here, m is the mass of the skateboard and v is the initial speed of the skateboard that starts from the left side of the ramp.
Since, the skateboard reaches at the maximum height on the right side of the ramp, setting the top of the ramp as zero, the potential energy remains conserved.
The expression for the potential energy of the skateboard is,
Here, m is the mass of the skateboard, h is the height of the skateboard that reaches on the right side of the ramp and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
According to the principle of conservation of energy,
According to the principle of conservation of energy,
Substitute for and for to find height.
The expression for the maximum height reached by the skateboarder,
Substitute for and for to find h.
Ans:The height of the highest point reached by the skateboarder is .

Chapter 06, Problem 87 Suppose the skateboarder shown in the drawing reaches a height of 1.50 m above the right side of the semicircular ramp. He then makes an incomplete midair turn and ends up sliding down the right side of the ramp on his back. When the skateboarder reaches the bottom of the ramp, his speed is 7.00 m/s. The skateboarder's mass is 66.0 kg, and the radius of the semicircular ramp is 2.10 m. What is the average...
