Answer:

250J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Force on block = 100N

Degree of pull = 60°

Mass of block = 10kg

Distance = 5m

Unknown:

Work done on the object = ?

Solution:

The workdone on a body is the force applied to move a body in a specific direction;

Workdone = force x distance cos Ф

Insert the parameters and solve;

Workdone = 100 x 5 cos 60°

Workdone = 250J
