This question is incomplete. The full question was:
<em>A skateboarder with mass ms = 54 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is hy = 3.3 m above the ground. The skateboarder then jumps on his skateboard and descends down the ramp. His speed at the bottom of the ramp is vf = 6.2 m/s. </em>
<em>Part (a) Write an expression for the work, Wf, done by the friction force between the ramp and the skateboarder in terms of the variables given in the problem statement. </em>
<em>Part (b) The ramp makes an angle θ with the ground, where θ = 30°. Write an expression for the magnitude of the friction force, fr, between the ramp and the skateboarder. </em>
<em>Part (c) When the skateboarder reaches the bottom of the ramp, he continues moving with the speed vf onto a flat surface covered with grass. The friction between the grass and the skateboarder brings him to a complete stop after 5.00 m. Calculate the magnitude of the friction force, Fgrass in newtons, between the skateboarder and the grass.</em>
For part A), we make a balance of energy to calculate the work done by the friction force:
For part B), we use our previous value for the work:
Solving for friction force:
For part C), we first calculate the acceleration by kinematics and then calculate the module of friction force by dynamics:
Solving for a:
Now, by dynamics:
