Answer:

0 Joules (No work)

Explanation:

The amount of work done on an object is equal to the force applied to the object times the distance over which the force is applied. In this case, the force applied to the car is 100 newtons, but the car does not move, so the distance over which the force is applied is 0 meters.

Therefore, the amount of work done on the car is 100 newtons * 0 meters = 0 joules. This means that no energy has been transferred to or from the car as a result of the force applied to it.
