Answer: 150 joules

Explanation:

Force applied on a block = 25N

Distance moved by block = 6 m

Workdone = ?

Recall that work is done when force is applied on an object over a distance. And it is measured in joules.

I. e Workdone = Force X Distance

= 25N x 6 metres

= 150 joules

Thus, 150 joules of work is done by the applied force.
