If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sleigh and the ground is 0.23, what is the magnitude of the kinetic friction force experienced by the sleigh? b. If the only other horizontal force exerted on the sleigh is due to the horses pulling the sleigh, what must be the magnitude of this force?arrow_forwardThree blocks (as shown in the figure) are released from rest and they start to accelerate with a constant magnitude of 0.41 m/s2.

The coefficient of kinetic friction is k = 0.60. In order to move the crate, you apply a horizontal force of magnitude F by pushing on it. As a result, the crate slides with an acceleration of 5.0 m/s². What is the force F? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
