Average force of air resistance on the skier


A 76 kg skier starts from rest at the top of a ski slope 48 meters high, if the frictional forces do -14.6 kJ of wok on her as she descends, once at the bottom the skier is moving horizontally and comes across a patch of soft snow, where the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.11. If the patch is 78 meters wide and the average force of air resistance on the skier is 179 newtons, how fast is she going after crossing the patch? (Note you must have first found the skier speed at the bottom of the hill in order to do this part.) Give your answer in m/s to the first decimal place.
