ANSWER


980,000J

Step-by-step explanation

To find the work done in carrying the bag pack, we can apply the formula:


W=F\cdot d

where F = force ; d = distance moved

The force here refers to the weight of the bag pack, given by:


\begin{gathered} m\cdot g \\ 40\cdot9.8 \\ \Rightarrow392N \end{gathered}

where m = mass; g = acceleration due to gravity

Hence, the work done is:


\begin{gathered} W=392\cdot2500 \\ W=980,000J \end{gathered}

That is the answer.
