Solution

The correct option is A 1.5 J

From the FBD of body and considering the rightwards as +ve x direction and upwards as +ve y direction ,
F=5^i+9cos60^i+9sin60^j3^j
=5^i+92^i+932^j3^j
=5^i+92^i+932^j3^j
F=12^i+(9323)^j
Displacement of the block S=3^i m
Work done by force,
W=FS=[12^i+(9323)^j](3^i)
W=1.5 J
