Kristie is a 60 kg skier. At the start of a ski-slope that is at 30o to the horizontal, she crouches into a tuck. The surface is very icy, so that there is no friction between her skies and the ice. a) If Kristie starts from rest, what is her speed after travelling a distance 80 m on the ice? b) Snow condition changes at the end of ice path so that Kristie continues down the slope with a constant velocity. Determine the co-efficient of kinetic friction between her skies and the path with changed snow condition.
