Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

The work done on an object is given by:

[tex]W=Fd cos \theta[/tex]

where

F is the force applied on the object

d is the displacement of the object

[tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

In this problem, you are pushing again a stationary wall: this means that the walls does not move. As a result, the displacement is zero: d=0. Therefore, the work done is also zero: W=0.
