Question

You are pulling a sled with a constant velocity using a rope held horizontally in
the snow. Using a spring scale attached to the rope, you measure the tension
to be 0.96 N. The sled's mass is 0.58 kg. Write the surface force the ground
exerts on the sled in component form, and determine its magnitude.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

if you are pulling in the positive direction and Upward is also positive.

F = -0.96i + 0.58(9.8)j

F = -0.96i + 5.7j

F = √(-0.96² + 5.7²) = 5.8 N
