Math Problem Statement
You are pushing a sled in which your little sister is seated up a 28° slope (one that makes an angle of 28° with the horizontal). If the mass of the sled and girl is 36 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the surface is 0.100, with what force (in N) do you need to push in order for the sled to move with constant velocity?
