A 88.5 kg skater moving initially at 2.40 m/s on rough horizontal ice comes to rest uniformly in 3.52 s due to friction from the ice. Part A What force does friction exert on the skater? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Enter positive value if the direction of the force is the same as that of the initial velocity of the skater and negative value if the direction of the force is opposite.
