What is the work done on the jet with the catapult

Reference no: EM13667595

A fighter jet is launched from an aircraft carrier with the aid of its own engines and a steam-powered catapult. The thrust of its engines is 2.70*10⁵N. In being launched from rest it moves during a distance of 87 m and has a kinetic energy of 4.40*10⁷ J at lift-off. What is the work done on the jet with the catapult?
