Askater with an initial speed of 5.70 m/s stops propelling himself and begins to coast across the ice, eventually coming to rest. air resistance is negligible. (a) the coefficient of kinetic friction between the ice and the skate blades is 0.0850. find the deceleration caused by kinetic friction. (b) how far will the skater travel before coming to rest? a = , x =

Answertraveling around a circular trackexplanation"traveling around a circular track" is the best answer as you could be traveling around a circular track at a constant speed. your velocity would therefore have the same magnitude but will always be constantly direction. since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, the rate of change will only involve the direction of velocity and not the magnitude.wrong choices: "an object at rest" does not accelerate at all"increasing speed while traveling around a curve" means that the acceleration will not be constant due to only change in direction; it will be constant due to both magnitude and direction"an object in free fall" does not necessarily change direction
