Three huskies are pulling a dog sled. The mass of the driver, sled and supplies is 145 kg. Snowy is pulling with a force of 83 N and 15.5degrees to the left of forward. Buster is pulling with a force of 75 N at 9degrees right of forward and Prince is pulling with a force of 77N at 12 degrees right of forward. The sled is moving forward at a constant velocity. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow?

A dog in a weight-pulling competition tugs a 50-kg sled a distance of 5 m across a snowy track. The dog pulls horizontally with a force of 350 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.05. (Draw yourself a free-body diagram on the sled). The next four questions have to do with this scenario. Determine the work done by the dog. I got the correct work (1750J) Add up the y-components, ΣFy, and determine...

The diagram below is a top-down view of two children pulling a 11.1-kg sled along the snow. The first child exerts a force of F1 = 10 N at an angle θ1 = 45° counterclockwise from the positive x direction. The second child exerts a force of F2 = 8 N at an angle θ2 = 30° clockwise from the positive x direction.

A sled with mass 100 kg moves in a straight line on a horizontal surface as it is being pulled by a force 250 N at an angle of 35° with the direction of motion. A force of friction of 30 N acts on the sled. At one point in its path, its speed is 3.0 m/s; after it has traveled a distance d beyond this point, its speed is 8.0 m/s. Use the work-energy theorem to find the total...
