A45.0 kg skater is skating at a speed of 12.0 m/s. the skater coasts to a speed of 6.00 m/s. how much kinetic energy has the skater lost?

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object that is moving. It is calculated from one-half the product of the mass and the change in square of the velocity of the object. It is the opposite of potential energy which the energy possessed by an object at rest. We calculate as follows:
KE = mΔv^2 / 2 = 45 ( 6^2 - 12^2 ) = -4860 J had been lost by the skater

Iwould sure like to answer your question but i honestly just don’t know

Answer: it will take   4.36 seconds to reach her average velocity 10.69 miles/hour.explanation:   we have equation of motion ,where s is the displacement, a is the acceleration, u is the initial velocity and t is the time taken.average velocity = displacement/ time taken.average velocity = 10.69 miles/hr = 10.69*1.6*1000/(60*60) = 4.75 m/s4.75 = s/ts = 4. 1we also have acceleration = 2.18 m/s², initial velocity = 0 m/sso it will take   4.36 seconds to reach her average velocity 10.69 miles/hour.
