A 18-kg sled is being pulled along the horizontal snow-covered ground by a horizontal force of 30 N. Starting from rest, the sled attains a speed of 2.0 m/s in 8.5 m. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the runners of the sled and the snow. Num

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.146

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of sled (m) = 18 kg

Horizontal force (F) = 30 N

FInal speed (v) = 2 m/s

Distance (s) = 8.5 m

Find:

Coefficient of kinetic friction.

Computation:

Initial speed (u) = 0 m/s

v² - u² = 2as

2(8.5)a = 2² - 0²

a = 0.2352 m/s²

Nweton's law of :

F (net) = ma

30N - μf = 18 (0.2352)

30 - 4.2336 = μ(mg)

25.7664 =  μ(18)(9.8)

μ = 0.146

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.146
