Answer:

D. 500 J

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Force applied as 50 Newtons
  • Distance moved as 10 meters

We are required to determine the work done

We need to know the formula for calculating the work done

That is; Work done = Force × Distance

Work done is the product of force and the distance covered.

It is measured in joules

In this case;

Work done = 50 N × 10 m

= 500 joules

Thus, the work done 500 joules
