Question:
A bicyclist pedals a distance \(d\) at constant speed on a level stretch of road. She then pedals up a hill and passes slowly over the top. As she coasts down the other side of the hill, she applies the brakes and comes to a stop when she is a distance \(d\) past the top (Figure P9.25). Choose an appropriate system and draw an energy diagram from the instant the bicyclist begins her climb until the instant she has stopped on the downslope.
