Work is the product of force multiplied by the distance moved, but since the distance moved in the vertical direction is zero

Work Done = 0 joules

Given data

Force = 125N

Horizontal Distance = 2 m

Vertical distance = 0 m

<h3>Formula for work</h3>

<em>Work</em><em> = Force * Distance</em>

Solution

substitute the given information

Work Done in the horizontal direction= 125*2

Work Done = 250 Joules
