Skier starts at rest at the top of large hemispherical hill

Reference no: EM13672524

A skier starts at rest at the top of a large hemispherical hill with radius (height) = R. Neglecting friction, show that the skier will leave the hill and become airborne at the distance of h = R/3below the top of the hill. Hint: at this point, the normal force is zero.
