A child of 40 kg slides down a rough slide inclined at 38 degrees. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the child and the slide is μk = 0.31. If the child starts from rest at the top of the slide, a height of 4.8 m above the bottom, how fast is she traveling when she reaches the bottom in m/s?
