    Solving Sled Friction: Find Distance Traveled with Coefficient of Friction 0.060

    Thanks Tom, that really got me started on the problem. I did what you suggested and solved for acceleration (.588 m/s). But i don't know where to go from here, I am still missing time, velocity(final), and x(position) so i can't use any of the following equations i know: v = v0 + at x = v0t...
