Question:
A 180-lb snowboarder has speed v = 15 ft/sec when in the position shown on the halfpipe. Determine the normal force on his snowboard and the magnitude of his total acceleration at the instant depicted. Use a value μk = 0.10 for the coefficient of kinetic friction between the snowboard and the surface. Neglect the weight of the snowboard and assume that the mass center G of the snowboarder is 3 feet from the surface of the snow.
