The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A body is displaced through a certain distance x by a force of 30newtons .if the workdone is100j and the displacement is in the direction of the force, what is the value of x

Answer:

3.33 m in the direction of the force

Step-by-step explanation:

We say that work is done when the force applied moves an object by some distance in the direction of the force.

Hence;

Work = Force × displacement

Displacement = Work /Force

Displacement = 100 J/30 N

Displacement = 3.33 m in the direction of the force
