Suppose the ski patrol lowers a rescue sled carrying an injured skiier, with a combined mass of 97.5 kg, down a 60.0° slope at constant speed. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.100.

a) How much work in joules, is done by friction as the sled moves 3l m along the hill?

b)How much work in joules, is done by the rope on the sled over this distance ?

c) What is the work in joules, done by the gravitational force on the sled?

d)What is the net work done on the sled, in joules?

You pull a your friend along in a sled (combined mass is 65 kg), by pulling the rope at an upward angle of 20 degrees with respect to the ground with enough force to keep the sled moving at a constant velocity of m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ground and the sled is 0.15. (a) Draw a force diagram for the friend/sled system. (b) Once you get to constant velocity, you pull the sled 15 m.
