Answer

$$ K_{f}=1.02 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{J} $$

Work Step by Step

$\text { Using Eq. } 8-31 \text { (with } W=0)$ we find $$ K_{f}=K_{i}+U_{i}-U_{f}-\Delta E_{\text {th }}$$ $$=0+\left(1.53 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{J}\right)-0-\left(5.1 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{J}\right)$$ $$=1.02 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{J} $$
