Answer:

500 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • Force is 100 N
  • Distance is 5 m

We are required to calculate the work done;

  1. Work done is the product of force and distance.
  2. That is, work done = Force × distance
  3. Work is measured in Joules

Thus, in this case;

Work done = 100 N × 5 m

= 500 Joules

Thus, the work done in moving the box is 500 joules
