The work done is calculated by using the formula:
Work = Force x Distance x cos(theta)
where:
Force = 60 N
Distance = 2 meters
theta = 0° (since the force is in the same direction as the displacement)
Plugging in the values:
Work = 60 N x 2 m x cos(0°)
Work = 120 J
Therefore, the person did 120 joules of work.
