Physics

Goluk, the Inuit, is pulling a 62 kg sled through the snow on his way home from ice fishing. On the back of the sled is his 50 kg sack of fishing tackle. The coefficient of sliding friction between the sled and the snow is 0.07 and the coefficient of sliding friction between the sled and the sack is 0.10.
