By definition, the work is given by:
[tex] w = f * d
[/tex]
Where,
f: force acting in the direction of displacement
d: distance traveled
Substituting values we have:
[tex] w = 12 * 0.75
[/tex]
Therefore, the work done is given by:
[tex] w = 12 * 0.75
w = 9 J
[/tex]
Answer:
9 J of work is done on the 12.0n block by gravity
