Answer:
yes
Explanation:
because when you slow down, the resistance slows with the speed.
We will define the Total mass to calculate the force, so our values are:
Total Mass 
The Weight is,

Through the hook's Law we calculate X.
, where x is the lenght of compression and K the Spring constant.
We don't have a K-Spring, but we can assume a random value (or simply let the equation in function of K)

I assume a value of 

Answer:

Explanation:
F = Force on the sled = 63 N
m = Mass of sled = 28.7 kg
= Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.169
g = Acceleration due to gravity = 
The force balance of the system is given by

The acceleration of the sled is
.
