I have been working on this problem for a while now, and it's supposed to be really simple, but I can't get the solution can you sort of guide me through this problem, and show me the equations you used?

Problem: How much work is done by the Moon's gravitational field as a 1060 kg meteor comes in from outer space and impacts on the Moon's surface?

I need help to solve the above question.
