Need help on physics hw

Need help identifying all the forces on a skier asap

First off, Yahoo answers is much more appropriate for this. Second, static friction absolutely when not moving, but once moving, kinetic friction plays a bigger part. Skis and snow have a low friction coefficient. Tension maybe if you think about bindings and springs and such. Weight and force, idk as I don't remember the definitions, but probably.

I assume there's a picture to this problem as well?

Nothing wrong with being a nice dude and trying to help a nibba out

Thats a broad ass question man. Didnt even say if he was moving, and is w suppose to be force of gravity? either way you still got 135.6% on the question

i could help if you could tell me what fuckin skier we're talkin bout here

 

[k-rob]

unless he's on a t-bar, it's everything except static and tension. if he's on a t-bar, add tension.

actually thrust is pretty iffy. only advanced skiers know how to generate thrust

I'm a physics major and I can tell you that this is a trick question. The only force present is actually a yoda force.

I feel like this should belong somewhere......

OP you really need to understand every concept that is listed there. Being able to do this question by getting an answer from online won't help you on the test.
