μs = 0.595, and the kinetic friction coefficient is μk = 0.459. The combined mass of the sled and its load is m = 261 kg. The ropes are separated by an angle φ = 23°, and they make an angle θ = 30.8° with the horizontal. Assuming both ropes pull equally hard, what is the minimum rope tension required to get the sled moving?
