Compute what the skier acceleration down the hill

Reference no: EM13669727

A skier travels down the trail. The slope is inclined at an angle of 22 degree and the coefficient of kinetic friction for the skier's shoes-ice surface is 0.2. Compute what the skier acceleration down the hill. (Start with a free body diagram for the skier, add a coordinate system, and then write the equations for the summation of forces acting on the skier)
