Answer:

Explanation:

a) No work is being done on the book! The book stays still, at constant gravitational potential. All the energy is expended in his body.

b)No, the old man didnot do any work as he didnot move....

Derivation:

work done= force x displacement (W=FXS)

as the displacement is 0

so,w = f x 0

(ie) w= 0
