A 55.0-kg skateboarder starts out with a speed of 1.80 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. He does $+80.0 \mathrm{J}$ of work on himself by pushing with his feet against the ground. In addition, friction does -265 J of work on him. In both cases, the forces doing the work are nonconservative. The final speed of the skateboarder is $6.00 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} .$ (a) Calculate the change $\left(\Delta \mathrm{PE}=\mathrm{PE}_{\mathrm{f}}-\mathrm{PE}_{0}\right)$ in the gravitational potential energy. (b) How much has the vertical height of the skater changed, and is the skater above or below the starting point?
