Answer:

53,775 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object can be found by using the formula


k = (1)/(2) m {v}^(2) \\

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question we have


k = (1)/(2) * 478 * {15}^(2) \\ = 239 * 225

We have the final answer as

53,775 J

Hope this helps you
