Potential and Kinetic Energy ? :thumbdown:
Lora (60 kg) is an expert skier. Assume that she starts with a speed of 5 m/s at the top of a run, 50 m above the bottom. What is her final speed if she converts all her gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy? What is her final kinetic energy at the bottom of the ski run? Assume that the ski slope is frictionless.
Thank you for all your help!
Gravity = 9.8 m/s^2
PE=(Mass)(Gravity)(Distance)
KE=1/2(Mass)(Velocity)^2
