A team of eight dogs pulls a sled with waxed wood runners on

A team of eight dogs pulls a sled with waxed wood runners on wet snow mush Each dog exerts an average force of 173 N backward on the snow and the coefficient of kinetic friction is k 0 100 between the waxed wood and wet snow The dogs have average masses of 27 3 kg and the loaded sled with its rider has a mass of 187 kg Calculate the magnitude of the tension force in the rope between one dog and the sled Use 9 80 m s2 for the acceleration due to gravity
