We have: A= F.s
So, A = 22 x 16
A= 352J
Só A is correct answer

Answer:

W = 352 J

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The force used to drag the block, F = 22 N

Displacement of the block, d = 16 meters

The work done is given by the product of the force and the displacement :

W = F . d

W = 22 N × 16 m

W = 352 Joules

The amount of work done to drag the block is 352 Joules.

Hence, the correct option is (A) " 352 J ".
