How much work is done by the force? Show your work.arrow_forwardChoose the correct answer: 1. We can distinguish three simple cases of action of a force and the work it does on a system: A. When the force acts in the same direction and sense as the displacement, the work it does is positive (W> 0) B. When the force acts in the same direction, but in the opposite direction to the displacement, the work that performs has a negative value (W <0) C. When the force acts in a direction perpendicular to the displacement, it does no work (W = 0) 2. An example of negative work is: A. Stop a ball. B. Push a car C.
