To calculate the work done during the kick, you can use the formula for work:

\[
\text{Work} = \text{Force} \times \text{Distance} \times \cos(\theta)
\]

where:
- Work is the amount of energy transferred by the force.
- Force is the force applied.
- Distance is the distance over which the force is applied.
- \( \theta \) is the angle between the force and the direction of motion.

In this scenario, the player kicks the ball with a force of 1,000 N over a distance of 0.2 m. We will assume that the force is applied in the same direction as the movement of the ball, which means \( \theta = 0^\circ \) and \( \cos(0) = 1\).

Plugging in the values:

\[
\text{Work} = 1,000 \, \text{N} \times 0.2 \, \text{m} \times 1
\]

Calculating this gives:

\[
\text{Work} = 1,000 \times 0.2 = 200 \, \text{Joules}
\]

Thus, the work done during the kick is approximately **200 Joules**.
