The work done can be calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Work} = \text{Force} \times \text{Distance} \]

In this case, the force is the weight of the box, which is 50 newtons, and the distance is 0.5 meters. Plugging in these values:

\[ \text{Work} = 50 \, \text{N} \times 0.5 \, \text{m} = 25 \, \text{joules} \]

So, the correct response is:

**25 joules**.
