A sled with mass 15 kg moves in a straight line on a horizontal surface as it is being pulled by a force F at an angle of 30°with the direction of motion. A force of friction of 10 N acts on the sled. At one point in its path, its speed is 4.0 m/s; after it has traveled a distance 5.0 m beyond this point, its speed is 7.0 m/s.

  1. Use the work-energy theorem to find the total work done on the sled?
  2. Find the pulling force F on the sled.

The physics of work on an accelerating object. a) A sled is dragged along by a 25.0 N force that is applied at an angle of 50.0 degrees above the horizontal. The sled moves to the right and friction is negligible, so it is constantly accelerated while the force is being applied. How much work is done after the sled has moved 2.5 m? b) Given the motion of the sled, how must the downward force of gravity on the...
