Given:

The force applied to the object, F=10 N

The distance covered by the object, d=2.5 m

To find:

The work done.

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is the measure of the transfer of energy from a source to an object by applying an external force.

The work done on the object is given by,


W=Fd

On substituting the known values in the above equation,


\begin{gathered} W=10*2.5 \\ =25\text{ Nm} \end{gathered}

Final answer:

Thus the work done is 25 N.

Therefore the correct answer is option C.
