On a frozen pond, a 13.2 kg sled is given a kick that imparts to it an initial speed of v0 = 2.48 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between sled and ice is μk = 0.123. Use the work kinetic energy theorem to find the distance the sled moves before coming to rest.

initial KE= forcefriction*distance
1/2 m vi^2=mg*mu*distance

solve for distance.
