Answer:1200 joules

Step-by-step explanation:

Let
W be the work done.

Let
F be the force applied.

Let
S be the displacement of the object.

Workdone by a object is defined as the dot product of force and displacement.


W=F.S

Given,
F=600N


S=2m

So,


W=F.S=600* 2=1200joules

So,workdone by Steve is
1200 joules.
