Question

USE WORKSHEET: A cyclist is coasting at 14.0 m/s when she starts down a 463 m long slope that is 28.5 m high. The cyclist and her bicycle have a combined mass of 63.7 kg. A steady 12.9 N drag force due to air resistance acts on her as she coasts all the way to the bottom. What is her speed at the bottom of the slope? Give your answer in meters per second.
