A girl on skateboard (total mass of 56.1 kg) is moving at 14.1 m/s at the bottom of a long ramp. The ramp is inclined at 19.4° with respect to the horizontal. If she travels 11.6 m along the ramp before stopping, what is the work done by the net frictional force in J on her? Give your answer to 1 decimal place.
