Answer: 6 metres

Explanation:

Work is done when force is applied by the climber over a distance.

i.e Workdone = Force x Distance

Since, Workdone = 3,000 joules

Force = 500 Newton

Height climbed = ?

Then, Workdone = Force x Distance

3000J = 500N x Distance

Distance = (3000J / 500N)

Distance = 6 metres

Thus, the climber went 6metres high
