Answer 1

100 Nm and 25Nm/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Force = 25N

Distance = 4m

Time = 5secs

To find the workdone;

Workdone = force * distance

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Workdone = 25*4

Workdone = 100 Nm

To find the power consumed;

Power = workdone/time

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Power = 100/4

Power = 25Nm/s

The work done on the box is 100 Nm, and the power is 25 Nm/s.
