There is a boy with a mass of 55kg starting at rest going down a slide which is 4m high (y distance) and 6m (x distance) and his final velocity at the end is 4.5m/s then what is the average F of friction acting against him as he goes down the slide?

Clearly,while sitting on top of the slide,total energy of the boy is purely potential energy i.e
Again,when the boy is at the bottom of the slide,his total energy is purely kinetic energy i.e
Clearly,during this process of sliding down,
Now,in this case,if frictional force acting is
So,frictional force acting is
