Question 4. A skateboarder of mass m approaches a ramp with height H and an incline angle of 0. You may ignore friction throughout this problem. (a) Draw a FBD for the skater on the ramp. (b) What is the acceleration on the ramp? (c) What is the minimum speed the skateboarder must have at the bottom of the ramp to ensure he reaches the top? (d) Assume he approaches the ramp with a speed greater than the one you found in part (c). How far in the horizontal direction does he travel after leaving the ramp before landing?
