We can calculate the acceleration of Cole due to friction using Newton's second law of motion:
where
is the frictional force (with a negative sign, since the force acts against the direction of motion) and m=100 kg is the mass of Cole and the sled. By rearranging the equation, we find
Now we can use the following formula to calculate the distance covered by Cole and the sled before stopping:
where
is the final speed of the sled
is the initial speed
is the distance covered
By rearranging the equation, we find d:
where
