Question
18.
A child sits on a sled at the top of a hill, the hill makes an angle of 20° with the horizontal.
The child's mass is 40kg. Use us = .1 and 4.03
a.
b.
Draw a free body diagram for this system.
Does the child accelerate down the hill? *i.e., check that the coefficient of static friction is
vercome by the component of the childs weight in the direction the child would accelerate.
If they do, what is their acceleration? *use coefficient of kinetic friction in sum of the
forces balance if the child moves.
