In the uploaded worksheet a block slides up the Hill from an initial position at an initial horizontal velocity. The block's motion is subject to sliding friction.

How can the equations of the block's motion be obtained to include the effects of gravity and friction?

It may simplify the answer to end the block's upward motion when gravity and friction bring it to an instantaneous halt.
