Work done = Change in Kinetic energy

Change in kinectic energy= kinetic energy while moving - kinetic energy while stopped

U = Initial velocity = 72 km / hr
V = Final velocity = 0 Km / hr

Change in K.E. = 1/2 mu² - 1/2mv²

= 1/2m ( u² - v²)

= 1 / 2 * 1500 ( 72² - 0² )

= 750 ( 72²)

= 750 * 5184 = 3888000 J = 3888 KJ 

Hope it helps!!
Cheers!!

kushalankur09p5h135: check on this website
kushalankur09p5h135: they converted 60 km/hr in m/s first
Steph0303: i have taken it as km/hr itself
kushalankur09p5h135: yes but they convert 60 km/hr into 60 m/s
Steph0303: ok.. i got it
Steph0303: thx
kushalankur09p5h135: ok
Steph0303: o mthats why i convrted to kj

m=1500kg

u= 60km/h =60* 5/18 = 50/3m/s

v =0m/s

w = change in its KE.

initial KE =1/2 mu2

final KE=1/2mv²

w = 1/2mv - 1/2 mu2

  =1/2m(v2-u2)

= 1/2 * 15000{0- (50/3)2}

=  -208333.33J

I wish this helps u : )
