A 80-kg baseball player whilerunning at a speed of 5 m/s slides on the ground and comes to astop in 3 m. True statements are: (i) Since the player had a KE atthe beginning and no KE at the end energy is not conserved, (ii)From this information it is possible to determine the magnitude ofthe frictional force that stopped the player, (iii) ) From thisinformation it is NOT possible to determine the magnitude of thefrictional force that stopped the player, (iv) The work done by thefrictional force is 1000 J.
