0 1 . 2 The longest dog-sled race in the world covers a distance of 1 500 000 m. box
One team finished the race in a time of 670 000 s.
Calculate the average speed of this team during the race.
[3 marks]
Average speed = m/s
0 1 . 3 At the start of the race, 6 dogs pulled on the rope.
The average forward force on the sled from each dog was 370 N.
The backwards force on the sled from friction was 520 N.
Calculate the resultant force on the sled.
[2 marks]
Resultant force = N
