The Correct answer is 20 J.

Key Points

  • Work done is calculated using the formula: W = F × d × cos θ, where:
    • W is the work done.
    • F is the force applied.
    • d is the displacement of the body.
    • θ is the angle between the direction of force and displacement.
  • In this case, the force applied is 10 N, displacement is 2 m, and the force acts in the same direction as the displacement. Thus, cos θ = cos 0 = 1.
  • Substituting the values into the formula:
    • W = 10 × 2 × 1 = 20 J.
  • Hence, the work done is 20 Joules.
  • This calculation is based on the principle of mechanics and is relevant in physics to determine the energy transferred by a force.
