Wow, I picked some really bad numbers. I should have picked a coefficient of friction greater than 1, so the result wouldn't seem totally stupid (although I did deliberately pick unrealistic weights for the plane and carrier).
Yes, real aircraft carriers have tailhooks to shorten the necessary length of the boat. Still, real runways (the ones on land) aren't this long, so there's more stopping a real plane besides friction!
Oh, and your answer is wrong, shred_head...
