Answer:

Work done, W = 900 joules

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on the man, F = 75 N

Distance, d = 12 m

We need to find the work done by the man on the box. Let it is given by W. The work done of an object is equal to the product of force and distance. Mathematically, it can be calculated as :

W = F × d


W=75\ N* 12\ m

W = 900 joules

So, the work done by the man on the box is 900 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
