Question 2

A rope pulls a rescue sled at constant speed across two sections of snow. The rope acts in the direction in which the sled moves. Across the first section, the rope exerts a force of 90 N for 4.0 m. The sled then moves 8.0 m across the second section. The rope transfers a total of 1000 J of energy across both sections. How much force does the rope exert across the second section?
