Answer:

5..No work is being done.

Explanation:

Hello!

Remember that the concept of work is defined as the force required to move a certain body distance, it is calculated as the product of force by distance.

therefore, the work required to raise the box is 150J.

However, the work required to keep the box lifted without moving is zero since although the box has a force due to the weight it does not move.
