Rolling Ball IIA

See Rolling Ball I

A solid ball with a moment of inertia of $I=\frac{2}{5}mr^2$ is initially moving with a velocity of $v_i$ and it is sliding with no rotational motion at $t=0$ on flat ground (which you can assume to be extended to infinity).

The coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu_k$ and coefficient of static friction is $\mu_s>\mu_k$ and are non-zero.

True or False?

The final velocity depends on the exact value of kinetic and static friction.

note: (assume the ball to be rigid and the ground too, so you don't have to consider rolling friction.)
