A 100 kg gymnast comes to a stop after tumbling. her feet do - 5000J of net work to stop her. Use the work-kinetic energy theorem to find the girl's initial velocity when she began to stop?

    W=ΔKE, W=-5000j

    KEinitial = (1/2) mv², KEfinal=0j

    ΔKE = - (1/2) mv²

    -5000 = - (1/2) (100kg) v²

    v=10 m/s
