A child on a sled is initially at rest on an icy horizontal surface. The sled is pushed until it reaches a final velocity of 5.70 m/s in a distance of 14.6 m. The coefficient of friction between the ice and runners of the sled is 0.200, and the weight of the child and the sled is 355 N. Find the work done by the force pushing the sled.
