Answer: Work done by the man will be 96 J.

Step-by-step explanation:

Work is defined as the amount of energy that is transferred in order to move an object by an external force. It is expressed in joules.

Mathematically,


W=F* d

Where,

W = Work done = ? J

F = Force applied = 48 N

d = Displacement of the body = 2 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:


W=48* 2=96J

Hence, work done by the man will be 96 J.
