Answer:
218.5 N
Explanation:
In order for the sled to be in equilibrium along the vertical direction, the forces acting along this direction must be balanced. So the equilibrium equation is:
where
N is the normal force
F = 50 N is the force that pulls the sled
is the angle between the force and the horizontal, so
is the component of F acting along the vertical direction
(mg) is the weight of the sled, with
m = 25 kg being the mass of the sled
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity
Solving the formula for N, we find
Answer

How do you think a winter day in San Francisco will be different from Kansas City
The distance covered by an object accelerating from rest is
D = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)² .
In this particular case, 'acceleration' is 9.8 m/s² ... due to gravity.
D = (1/2) · (9.8 m/s²) · (1.67 s)²
D = (4.9 m/s²) · (2.789 s²)
D = 13.67 meters
