A heavy sled is being pulled by two people as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the sled and the ground is ?s = 0.571, and the kinetic friction coefficient is ?k = 0.459. The combined mass of the sled and its load is m = 321 kg. The ropes are separated by an angle ? = 28°, and they make an angle ? = 29.7° with the horizontal. Assuming both ropes pull equally hard, what is the minimum rope tension required to get the sled moving?
