It was a snow day, so Eric and some friends went sledding. He boarded his 60-inch sled and descended the steepest section near the tall trees. Before his ride ended at the location of a tree stump buried a few inches below the snow, he was accelerating at 2.41 m/s/s down the 20.1° incline. Determine the coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow. (Coefficients of friction are positive, so use the absolute value of your answer.) Use the approximation g ≈ 10 m/s2.
