Explanation / Answer

Here ,

mass of sled , m = 18 Kg

horizontal force , F = 31 N

final speed , v = 2.9 m/s

distance ,d = 8.2 m

let the coefficinet of kinetic friction is u

Using work energy theorum

(F - u * m * g) * distance = kinetic energy

(31 - u * 18 * 9.8) * 8.2 = 0.5 * m * v^2

(31 - u * 18 * 9.8) * 8.2 = 0.5 * 18 * 2.9^2

solving for u

u = 0.1234

the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.1234
