The skier shown in figure 5d below has a mass of 75 kg. If the slope is at 12∘ to the horizontal, (i) What force down the slope is he exerting? (ii) What would his acceleration down the slope be? If the kinetic coefficient of friction is 0.08 , what angle of slope would you recommend for a beginners slope so that they ski at a constant velocity rather than accelerating.
