kinetic force
The force that holds you to a sled when it starts moving is friction between your body and the sled, as well as the force of gravity acting on you downwards. As the sled accelerates, friction between your body and the sled helps keep you in place and in motion together.
friction
Friction is the force that keeps you from sliding off a sled when it starts moving. When you sit on a sled, the friction between the sled and your clothing provides the necessary grip to keep you in place as the sled accelerates.
To keep a sled accelerating downhill, the force of gravity must be greater than the force of friction acting against the sled. This allows gravity to overcome the frictional force and propel the sled forward.
Yes, when a sled is accelerating downhill, the force of gravity pulling the sled downhill must be greater than the normal force acting in the opposite direction to overcome friction and any other resistive forces. This difference in force is what allows the sled to accelerate downhill.
A sled accelerates downhill when the force of gravity pulling it downhill is greater than the force of friction and air resistance acting against it. This difference creates a net force that causes the sled to accelerate. The normal force from the surface helps support the sled against gravity but does not impact its acceleration directly.
To find the force of friction between the sled and the snow, we need to resolve the applied force into its components. The force acting parallel to the ground (F_parallel) will balance the force of friction, so F_friction = F_parallel. Using trigonometry, F_parallel = 80 * cos(53). Thus, the force of friction between the sled and the snow is 50.63 N.

The acceleration is caused by the force of gravity on the sled combined with the force you exert on the sled by pushing it.
Typically, a rider on a sled is held in place by their body weight pressing down on the sled, along with using their hands or feet for additional stability. Some sleds also come with straps or handles that can be used to secure the rider in place.
Yes, when a sled is accelerating downhill, the force of gravity pulling the sled downhill must be greater than the normal force acting in the opposite direction to overcome friction and any other resistive forces. This difference in force is what allows the sled to accelerate downhill.
The force of friction is proportional to the force which surfaces press against each other. Since two people will cause the sled to push harder on the snow then one person, the friction will be greater for two people on the sled.

When a tractor is pulling a sled there is the mass and gravity of both the tractor and sled slowing it down. There is also tension in the rope pulling the sled. whenever physics is involved to solve a force there is usually a frictional force acting on the objects. The formula to use is F=ma. The total mass is the mass of the objects put together and the total force is the force that the tractor is pulling at minus mg (mass x gravity) and minus the frictional force. The tension (T) is calculated using the formula T=W+ma (W=mgh), using only the mass of the sled.
The acceleration of the sled is .18m/s2
