    How to Calculate Work Done by Kinetic Friction on a Toboggan?

    I tried it and I got it right. :) I did: FF = M.FN FN = mg = 85 (9.8) FF = 0.110 (85 x 9.8) = 91.7235 N W = (91.7235)(0)(21) = 1926.1935 W = -1.90 x 10^3 J made it cos180 which made it negative. Thanks.

    How to Calculate Work Done by Kinetic Friction on a Toboggan?

    Homework Statement A toboggan carrying two children with a total mass of 85.0 kg reaches its maximum speed at the bottom of a hill, and then glides to a stop in 21.0 m along a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the toboggan and the snow surface is 0.110. Calculate...
