A 77.0−kg short-track ice skater is racing at a speed of 12.6 m/s when he falls down and slides across the ice into a padded wal
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

-6112.26  J

Explanation:

The initial kinetic energy, KE_i is given by

KE_i=0.5mv_1^{2} where m is the mass of a body and v_i is the initial velocity

The final kinetic energy, KE_f is given by

KE_f=0.5mv_f^{2} where v_f is the final velocity

Change in kinetic energy, \triangle KE is given by

\triangle KE=KE_f-KE_i=0.5mv_f^{2}-0.5mv_1^{2}=0.5m(v_f^{2}-v_i^{2})

Since the skater finally comes to rest, the final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for v_f and 12.6 m/s for v_i and 77 Kg for m we obtain

\triangle KE=0.5*77*0^{2}-0.5*77*(0^{2}-12.6^{2})=-6112.26 J

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>
