A 75-kg snowboarder has an initial velocity of at the top

Chapter 4, Problem 92

(choose chapter or problem)

A 75-kg snowboarder has an initial velocity of at the top of a 28 incline (Fig. 475). After sliding down the 110-m-long incline (on which the coefficient of kinetic friction is ), the snowboarder has attained a velocity v. The snowboarder then slides along a flat surface (on which ) and comes to rest after a distance x. Use Newtons second law to find the snowboarders acceleration while on the incline and while on the flat surface. Then use these accelerations to determine x.
