A25-kg mass moves at 25 m/s. Now a brake system brings the mass to a complete stop

Question:

A25-kg mass moves at 25 m/s. Now a brake system brings the mass to a complete stop with a constant deceleration over a period of 5 s. Assume the mass is at constant P and T. The brake energy is absorbed by 0.5 kg of water initially at 20◦C and 100 kPa. Find the energy the brake removes from the mass and the temperature increase of the water, assuming its pressure is constant.
