Just remember that the formula for Work is Force times Distance. You have the force which is 38 N. And N is Newtons if you didn't know what that was. And remember distance is always given in metres, so you have to convert cm to metres. There are 0.01 meters in a centimeter so you times 0.01 with 3.6 and you get 0.036 meters, and this is your distance. Then you times 38 by 0.036 to get your answer.
W = Fd
W = (38)(0.036)
W =
^ Can you do that?
Oh one thing you might be getting confused on is where it says --> weight of 38N. Weight and force are the same thing, so just watch out for that, it's something I got confused with too earlier.
