A skier slides down a hill in a straight line. The hill is 60m high and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the snow and the skis is 0.1. The hill is at an angle of 20 degrees with the horizontal. The mass of the skier is 70 kg. The skier starts her run from rest. At the bottom of the hill is a flat section with the same coefficient of kinetic friction. How far does the skier go into the flat section before stopping? Please answer in units of meters.

The diagram shows a box moving down a green ramp, beginning from rest at the top of the ramp and ending at the bottom. The angle of the ramp's surface with the horizontal and the distance the box moves on the ramp from top to bottom are shown in the diagram. Given this information, how long does it take the box to reach the bottom of the ramp? Assume the surface of the ramp is frictionless and ignore air resistance. Use g = 9.81 m/s². Give your answer in units of seconds to two significant figures. When inputting your answer in the box below, enter a numerical value only (without the unit's symbol or name). Ax = 36 m 8 = 30°
