Evaluate how much work was done on the player by friction

Reference no: EM13673450

A baseball player is trying to stretch a double into a triple. The 62.0 kilogram player begins sliding 3.00 meter from third base with a speed of 4.23 m/s.

(a) If the player comes to rest at third base, determine how much work was done on the player by friction?

(b) Determine what was the coefficient of kinetic friction between the player and the ground?
