Answer:
-6112.26 J
Explanation:
The initial kinetic energy, is given by
} where m is the mass of a body and
is the initial velocity
The final kinetic energy, is given by
where
is the final velocity
Change in kinetic energy, is given by
Since the skater finally comes to rest, the final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for and 12.6 m/s for
and 77 Kg for m we obtain
From work energy theorem, work done by a force is equal to the change in kinetic energy hence for this case work done equals <u>-6112.26 J</u>
