The work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules
If a catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots, hence;
5.44×10^3 kg = 12 knots
For an increased speed to 16knots, we will have:
x = 16knots
Divide both expressions
To get the required work done, we will divide the mass by the speed of one knot to have:
Hence the work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules

Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Velocity of bullet, = 814.8 m/s
Observer distance from marksman, d = 24.7 m
Let us assume that time necessary for report of rifle to reach the observer is t and will be calculated as follows.
t = (velocity in air = 343 m/s)
= 0.072 sec
Now, before the observer hears the report the distance traveled by the bullet is as follows.
=
= 58.66
= 59 (approx)
Thus, we can conclude that each bullet will travel a distance of 59 m.
