Question:

You and your friend go sledding. Out of curiosity, you measure the constant angle θ that the snow-covered slope makes with the horizontal. Next, you use the following method to determine the coefficient of friction -k between the snow and the sled. You give the sled a quick push up so that it will slide up the slope away from you. You wait for it to slide back down, timing the motion. It turns out that the sled takes twice as long to slide down as it does to reach the top point in the round trip. In terms of θ what is the coefficient of friction?
