Friction. The friction between the two objects causes them to slow down

Answer:

friction

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that one force which causes objects to slow down or stop is friction. In the case of the skater the friction between the skate and the ice is reduced by the nature of the two materials. This enables the skater to keep moving for a longer time than, say, using roller skates on a road surface.
