I pull my child in a sled over the snow. The rope makes an angle with the horizontal so that the pulling force has a horizontal component of 23 N and a vertical component in the upwards direction of 25 N. The combined weight of the child and sled is 97 N. I'm getting tired and so the sled is slowing at a constant rate of 0.80 m/s each second.
Calculate the magnitude of the frictional force between the sled and the snow. Express your answer using two significant figures.
Part B
Calculate the magnitude of the upward normal force of the snow on the sled. Express your answer using two significant figures.
