Question

Consider the skateboarder in the figure below. If she has a mass of 49 kg, an initial velocity of 27 m/s, and a velocity of 11 m/s at the top of the ramp, what is the work done by friction on the skateboarder? Ignore the kinetic energy of the skateboard's wheels.

please explain!

Explanation / Answer

work done by friction=0.5MVi2-0.5MVf2-M*g*5

=0.5*49*(272-112)-49*9.81*5=12492.55J
