The answer to that would be that
they require so its mandatory for mechanical waves to travel through a medium
Answer: Total work done on the block is 3670.5 Joules.
Step by step:
Work done:

With F the force, d the displacement, and theta the angle of action (which is 0 since the block is pushed along the direction of displacement, and cos 0 = 1)

Given:
F = 75 N
m = 31.8 kg
Final velocity 
In order to calculate the Work we need to determine the displacement, or distance the block travels. We can use the information about F and m to first figure out the acceleration:

Now we can determine the displacement from the following formula:

Here, the initial displacement is 0 and initial velocity is also 0 (at rest):

Now we still have "t" as unknown. But we are given one more bit of information from which this can be determined:

(using vf as final velocity, and tf as final time)
So it takes about 6.44 seconds for the block to move. This allows us to finally calculate the displacement:

and the corresponding work:

The law of conservation of energy is a law that states that "energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed" this means that you can't create it or destroyed as in, if you burn wood, you have released the energy. you haven't destroyed it, you have just released it
Henry will lift 200 N load 20 m up a ladder in 40 s. While the Ricardo will take 400 N load in 80 seconds. So, For Henry to take 400 N load it will take him 80 seconds in two attempts. And,also, he will have to cover 40 m of distance.
