5. A 5 kg sled is being kicked on a horizontal snow covered surface and has an initial velocity of 4m/s. It comes to a stop after traveling a distance of 6m, due to the friction with the snow. Calculate the force of friction which acts on the sled. Hint: Start by drawing all the forces acting on the sled, and then apply the work-kinetic energy theorem. Ans.: F6.66 N
