### Skateboard Motion and Forces

#### Problem Description:

A skateboarder is attempting to make a circular arc of radius \( r = 19 \) meters in a parking lot. The total mass of the skateboard and skateboarder is \( m = 77 \) kilograms. The coefficient of static friction between the surface of the parking lot and the wheels of the skateboard is \( \mu_s = 0.68 \).

#### Diagram Explanation:

The diagram shows a skateboard of mass \( m \) moving in a circular path with radius \( r \). The mass \( m \) is positioned at a point along the circular path, illustrating its motion. The velocity \( V \) is indicated as a vector pointing tangentially to the path at the position of the mass \( m \).

Key elements in the diagram:
- \( m \): Represents the mass of the skateboard and the skateboarder combined.
- \( r \): Radius of the circular path which is 19 meters.
- \( V \): Velocity vector indicating the direction of movement along the circular path.

#### Important Parameters:
- **Radius (r)**: \( 19 \) meters
- **Mass (m)**: \( 77 \) kilograms
- **Coefficient of Static Friction (\( \mu_s \))**: \( 0.68 \)
