Explanation:
The question is incomplete, as the required parameters are missing. The general solution to this is as follows;
First, get the mass (m) and the acceleration (a) of the sled
So, the force (f) to stop the sled is:
[tex]f = ma[/tex] ---- Newton 2nd law
However, the force to stop the sled will be in the opposite direction of the sled.
So:
[tex]f =-ma[/tex]
Assume that:
[tex]m \to 5kg[/tex]
[tex]a \to 6m/s^2[/tex]
The required force is:
[tex]f =-ma[/tex]
[tex]f =-5kg * 6m/s^2[/tex]
[tex]f = -30N[/tex]
