A 50.0-kg skier starting from rest travels 200 m down a hill that has a 20.0° slope and a uniform surface. When the skier reaches the bottom of the hill, her speed is 30.0 m/s

(a) How much work is done by friction as the skier comes down the hill? (b) What is the magnitude of the friction force if the skier travels directly down the hill? What will be an ideal response?

The first of two identical boxes of mass m is sitting on level ground. The second box is sitting on a ramp that makes an angle with the ground. When a force of magnitude F is applied to each box in a direction parallel to the surface it is on, upwards on the box on the ramp, neither box moves. Which statement comparing the friction force on the box on the level, Fs,L, to the friction force on the box on the ramp, Fs,R, is correct?

A. Fs,R = Fs,L. B. Fs,R>Fs,L. C. Fs,R
