Find coefficient of kinetic friction between sled and trail

Reference no: EM13711690

Problem: A sled is pulled with a horizontal force of 18 N along a level trail, and the acceleration is found to be 0.36 m/s². An extra mass m = 4.1 kg is placed on the sled.

Part A: If the same force is just barely able to keep the sled moving, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the trail?

I need help to determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the trail.
