You promised your younger brother that you would give him a ride on his sled. You first pull him with a force F directed upward at an angle of 25∘ to the horizontal. After a while you decide to push him from behind with the same force F directed downward at an angle of 25∘. There is significant friction between the sled and the ice surface. Which of the following statements is true regarding the acceleration of the sled? apull = apush apull > apush apull < apush not enough information

You promised your younger brother that you would give him a ride on his sled. You first push him from behind with a force of magnitude F1 directed downward at an angle of 25∘ below the horizontal. After a while you decide to pull him with a force of magnitude F2 directed upward at the same angle above the horizontal. In both cases the sled moves with the same acceleration and friction is negligible. Which of the following statements is true regarding the two forces you used? F1 = F2 F1 > F2 F1 < F2 not enough information

You promised your younger brother that you would give him a ride on his sled. (Take the positive î direction to be to the right and the positive j^ direction to be upward.) (a) You first pull him with a force F→1 = (53.0ı^ + 23.0 j^) N. If the mass of the sled and boy is 59.0 kg and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.046 , what is the acceleration of the sled? Express your answer in vector form. ax = m/s2 (b) After a while, you decide to push him from behind with a force F→2 = (53.0ı^ − 23.0 j^) N. Determine the acceleration of the sled now to see if it will be different from your answer in part (a). Express your answer in vector form. ax = m/s2
