1.	A seventeen meter long vine hangs vertically from a tree on one side of a
ten meter wide 						gorge.  Tarzan runs up hoping to grab the vine, swing
over the gorge and drop vertically off the vine to land on the other side. 
At what minimum speed must he be running?

2.	At the bottom of a frictionless ski slope is a 20 meter wide stretch of
rough snow where the coefficient of friction is 0.32.   From what vertical
height on the slope should a skier start at rest in order to get through the
rough patch with a speed of 6.0 m/s.

It would be much appreciated if I could get some form of input by the 14 of
October!
Thanks in advance
