Required information When a person ice-skates, the ice surface actually melts beneath the blades so that he or she skates on a thin film of water between the blade and the ice. Compute X for the case Vo = 3.7 m/s, m = 106 kg, L = 30 cm, W= 5 mm, and h = 0.1 mm. m

#### Required Information
When a person ice-skates, the ice surface actually melts beneath the blades so that he or she skates on a thin film of water between the blade and the ice.
---
#### Problem Statement
Compute \( X \) for the case \( V_0 = 3.7 \, \text{m/s} \), \( m = 106 \, \text{kg} \), \( L = 30 \, \text{cm} \), \( W = 5 \, \text{mm} \), and \( h = 0.1 \, \text{mm} \).
---
\[ X \, \text{m} \]
---
In this problem, \( V_0 \) represents the initial velocity of the skater, \( m \) is the mass of the skater, \( L \) indicates the length of the blade, \( W \) is the width of the blade, and \( h \) is the thickness of the thin film of water created by the melting ice.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fbab71d29-f3d9-43ce-83f4-a263357daa0d%2Fdbad0f13-72fa-4ff4-9e2d-00690c515b4f%2F6hi0oje_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
