<span>1.0x10^3 Joules
The kinetic energy a body has is expressed as the equation
E = 0.5 M V^2
where
E = Energy
M = Mass
V = Velocity
Since the shot was at rest, the initial energy is 0. Let's calculate the energy that the shot has while in motion
E = 0.5 * 7.2 kg * (17 m/s)^2
E = 3.6 kg * 289 m^2/s^2
E = 1040.4 kg*m^2/s^2
E = 1040.4 J
So the work performed on the shot was 1040.4 Joules. Rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives 1.0x10^3 Joules</span>

13 g —> 0.013 kg
KE = 1/2(m)(v)^2
KE = 1/2(0.013)(8.5)^2
KE = 0.47 J
68% So 68/100 of freshwater is found in ice
