Question
Mike pushes a box with a mass of 5.8 kg giving it an initial velocity of 3.22 m/s. The box comes to rest after sliding for 1.08 meters because of the frictional force exerted between the surface and the box. What is the frictional force on the box?

- During your winter break, you enter a sled race. You push the sled with a force of 210 N at 30.0° below the horizontal as shown. The mass of the sled (and your nephew sitting on it) is 35.0 kg. The coefficients of friction between the sled and icy surface are us = 0.35 and uk = 0.20. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the sled, in m/s2? Use g = 10.0 m/s?. Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive.
