Asked by Shane
A sled slides down a snow-covered hill at CONSTANT SPEED. If the hill makes an ANGLE of 10degrees ABOVE THE HORIZONTAL, WHAT IS THE COEFFICIENT OF KINETIC FRICTION BETWEEN THE SLED AND THE SNOW?

Well, constant speed means no net force, so friction must equal the component of weight down the hill
mg*mu*cosTheta=mg*SinTheta
TanTheta=mu
check my thinking.
mg*mu*cosTheta=mg*SinTheta
TanTheta=mu
check my thinking.

Coefficient of kinetic friction=
tan0- Accelaration/gcos0
tan0- Accelaration/gcos0
