An 81.0-kg in-line skater does + 3420 J of nonconservative work by pushing against the ground with his skates. In addition, friction does −715 J of nonconservative work on the skater. The skater’s initial and final speeds are 2.50 m/s and 1.22 m/s, respectively. (a) Has the skater gone uphill, downhill, or remained at the same level? Explain. (b) Calculate the change in height of the skater.
