68.67 N #xx#36 meters = ?

Explanation:

W = F #xx#d

W = work done (measured in Joules)
F = Force (measured in Newtons)
d = distance (measured in meters)

Convert 7 kg into Newton = 7 #xx#9.81 = 68.67 Newtons,
since 1 kg = 9.81 Newtons

You have found the distance and the force.

The amount of work done is: #68.67 N xx 36 m# = 2472.12 Joules
