Work done on a 35 kg bobsled accelerating to 5 m/s

[jacob275c]

A 35 kg bobsled starts at rest and accelerates to 5 m/s on the horizontal section of the course how much work was done on the bobsled?

i know W=Fd but how do i find force and distance in this problem
i also know that f=ma but what does it mean when says that it accelerates does it means that its velocity or acceleration?
i have tried d=(0)T + (1/2)(5)T but I am not sure how to find time with the information or if that is correct

Hi jacob275c. Welcome to PF!

Since you don't know F or d, you might take a different approach. Have you studied how work is related to energy?
