W=2.4J

Explanation:

The work done is the amount of energy transferred by a force. It is dependent on the force and distance that the force travelled. Therefore, work done = force x distance.
W=fxxs, but the distance(s) has to be in meters.
40cm=0.4m because,

1cm=0.01m
40cm xx 0.01m=0.4m

W=6N xx 0.4m

=2.4J

See the answer below...

Explanation:

We know that work done is equal to the dot product of the force and the distance covered... which we can mathematically represent as
>W=F.S

Here F=6N and S=40/100m=0.4m

Hence the work done is 6xx0.4 joule=2.4 joule
