    Answer: 686 joules

    Explanation:

    Work done = ?

    Mass of fallen object = 10 kg

    Height = (12m - 5m) = 7metres

    (The height is 7metres because the object fell from an height of 12m to 5m)

    Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8m/s2

    Workdone = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity x height

    = 10kg x 9.8m/s2 x 7 metres

    = 686 joules

    Thus, the work done by gravity is 686 joules
