Answer:
A:- 50 J
B:- 500 J
Explanation:
a) Given that a 25 N force is applied to move the box. Also the floor is having friction surface.
So in order to move the box, the floor should have friction of atleast 25 N.
∴ friction = 25 N
Work done = force * displacement of box
Given, the box is moved 2 m across the floor
So, Work done = friction * 2 m
             = 25 * 2
             = 50 J
b) Given, the box is having weight of 250 N weight
Gravitational force is acting on the box which is equal to (mass * gravity)
∴ Force = 250 N
The box is lifted 2 m above the floor.
So, displacement = 2 m
Work done = force * displacement of box
Work done = 250 * 2
          = 500 J
