How hard would you have to push a 50 kg skater to increase her speed by 2 m sec sec?

Any force in the direction she's moving will cause her speed to increase.
The more force you use, the faster her speed will increase.
If you want to increase her speed by 2 m per sec in one second, then you want her
acceleration to be (change in speed)/(time for the change) = 2/1 = 2 m/sec2 .
F = M A = (50) (2) = 100 newtons
If you want to increase her speed by 2 m per sec in 0.1 second, then you want her
acceleration to be (change in speed)/(time for the change) = 2/0.1 = 20 m/sec2 .
F = M A = (50) (20) = 1,000 newtons.
If you want to increase her speed by 2 m per sec in 1 minute, then you want her
acceleration to be (change in speed)/(time for the change) = 2/60 .
F = M A = (50) (2/60) = 1.667 newtons.

How long it take to jog 1.5mile?
Well that all depends on speed. People run 1 mile in 6-15 minutes. That's a pretty big range. If you ran 7mph. Which is not hard to do if you get normal exercise, it would take about 10-12 minutes

Does heat effect speed?
interesting question and a little hard to understand, but I'll give you some different views and , in chemistry heat will increase the speed of a reaction by making particle vibrate faster in physics heat can increase friction, which would indirectly affect speed, more clarification on the question would help but i hope this helps
If the hard drive is replaced with a larger unit, will it make the cpu faster?

How can you increase your hard drive?
You can't "increase" an hard drive. You can buy a new one. The best for you would be to talk with someone that has some experience with computers, because putting a new hard drive in a computer is not that hard but you can easily break something

Hard drives can make a big difference in computer performance. Consider a solid-state drive if you need quick drive access.
Why does muscles working hard during exercise increase your pulse rate?
Your heart rate will increase when you exercise for a prolonged period or when you increase your effort. An increase in intensity might occur if you are riding your bike and you encounter a hill or a stiff headwind. Your heart rate will increase as you put more effort into maintaining your speed.
