How fast is the student going at the bottom of the slide

Reference no: EM13719150

Problem: A student, starting from rest, slides down a water slide. On the way down, a kinetic frictional force (a non conservative force) acts on her. The student has a mass of 60 kg, and the height of the water slide is 12.7 m.

Part A: If the kinetic frictional force does -5.4 x 10³ J of work, how fast is the student going at the bottom of the slide?

I want help to find how fast the student is going at the bottom of the slide.
