No, they have different definitions
Friction between the ball and the floor is stealing some of the kinetic energy of the ball, and turning it into heat.
Answer:
H = 3.9 m
Explanation:
mass (m) = 48 kg
initial velocity (initial speed) (U) = 8.9 m/s
final velocity (V) = 1.6 m/s
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}
find the height she raised her self to as she crosses the bar (H)
from energy conservation, the change in kinetic energy = change in potential energy
0.5m(V^{2} - [test]U^{2}[/tex]) = mg(H-h)
where h = initial height = 0 since she was on the ground
the equation becomes
0.5m(V^{2} - [test]U^{2}[/tex]) = mgH
0.5 x 48 x (1.6^{2} - [test]8.9^{2}[/tex]) = 48 x 9.8 x H
-1839.6 = 470.4 H (the negative sign indicates a decrease in kinetic energy so we would not be making use of it further)
H = 3.9 m
Answer
Any force greater 490N
Explanation
The force required just to make an object slide over a rough horizontal surface is any force greater that the static friction which given by;

Given;

Hence;
F = 0.5 x 100 x 9.8
F = 490N.
We will only need the coefficient of kinetic friction if we were asked to find the force required to keep the object moving uniformly. Usually, the force needed to keep an object moving uniformly over a rough surface is lesser that which is needed to start its motion.
In this problem, we were only asked to find the minimum force required to make the object move which we have done.
