Answer:

the net work done on the object is 80 J.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

force applied on the object, F = 100 N

mass of the object, m = 20 kg

speed of the object, v = 0.2 m/s

distance moved by the object, d = 0.8 m

The net work done on the object is calculated as follows;

W = F x d

W = 100 N x 0.8 m

W = 80 J

Therefore, the net work done on the object is 80 J.
