A sled is pushed along an ice covered lake. It has some initial velocity before coming to rest in 15m. It took 23 seconds before the sled and rider came to a rest. If the rider and sled have a combined mass of 52.5 kg, what is the magnitude and direction of the stopping force? What do we call the stopping force?
