A skier slides at constant speed down a slope inclined at an angle ϕ\phi to the horizontal, as shown above. If air resistance is negligible, the coefficient of friction μ\mu between the skis and the snow is equal to (A) 1tan⁡ϕ\frac{1}{\tan \phi} (B) 1cos⁡ϕ\frac{1}{\cos \phi} (C) sin⁡ϕ\sin \phi (D) cos⁡ϕ\cos \phi (E) tan⁡ϕ\tan \phi
