A fighter jet is launched from an aircraft carrier with the aid ofits own engines and a steam-powered catapult. The thrust of itsengines is 3.44 x 105 N. In being launched from rest itmoves through a distance of 59.7 m and has a kinetic energy of 7.34x 107 J at lift-off. What is the work done on the jet by the catapult?
