Determine the horizontal distance traveled by the woman


A woman is sliding down an incline with a const. acceleration of a(0) = 2.3 m/s2 relative to the incline. At the same time the incline is accelerating to the right at a(s) = 1.2 m/s2 relative to the ground. Letting θ = 34° and L = 4 m and assuming that both the woman and the incline start from rest, determine the horizontal distance traveled by the woman with respect to the ground when she reaches the bottom of the slide.

The acceleration down the triange with length L and angle theta, down and to the left. The incline is moving to the right, horizontally.
