Assume that the combined effects of friction and air drag produce on the bobsled a constant force of 62.0 N that acts parallel to the incline and up the incline. Answer the following questions to three significant digits. (a) If the speed of the bobsled at the start of the run is 6.20 m/s, how long does the bobsled take to come down the straightaway?

The surface of the lake is quite smooth and slippery (so the friction from the ice can be neglected), but he has studded boots with nails driven through the soles (from the inside) so he can walk across the ice without slipping.
