During the snow storm, you saw a girl standing still holding her sled, which was initially at rest. She then accelerated forward, pulling her sled along with her until she and the sled reached a constant speed. Which of the following statements about the magnitude of the forces between the sled and the girl are true during this process? O The girl's pull on the sled was always greater than the sled's pull on the girl. The girl's pull on the sled was always less than the sled's pull on the girl. O The girl's pull on the sled was always equal to the sled's pull on the girl. Initially as she starts to walk, the girl's pull on the sled was greater than the sled's pull on her, but after she got up to speed, the girl's pull on the sled was equal to the sled's pull on the girl. The answer cannot be determined without knowing the coefficients of friction.
