In the figure, a T bar ski tow pulls a skier up a hill inclined at 10 degrees above horizontal. The skier starts from rest and is pulled by a cable that exerts tension T at an angle of 30 degrees above the surface of the hill. The mass of the skier is 60kg and the effective coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the snow is 0.100. What is the maximum tension in the cable if the starting acceleration is not to exceed 0.400g ?

A skier starts from rest at the top of a hill that is inclined at 10.8° with respect to the horizontal. The hillside is 245 m long, and the coefficient of friction between snow and skis is 0.0750. At the bottom of the hill, the snow is level and the coefficient of friction is unchanged. How far does the skier glide along the horizontal portion of the snow before coming to rest?
