State the threetype of word done by the force and write on example each

Explanation:
Work: In physics work is said to be done when a force acting on a body displaces it through a certain distance. The work by a constant force is measured by the dot product of force will displacement.
i.e. W = F.S or W = FS cosq ...(1)
where F = force and S = displacement
And q = angle between F and S.
From eq.(1), we have W=F cosq x S. Therefore, work done by a force is equal to the product of the component of the force in the direction of displacement of the body and the distance through which the body moves.
As work is the dot or scalar product of two vectors (force and displacement), therefore, it is a scalar quantity.Special cases:
Casel: When the body moves in the direction of the force. In this case, q = 0o.
from eq (i), we have
W = FScosoo
i.e. W = FS ...(ii)
i.e. W = product of the force and the distance through which the body moves in the direction of the force.
This type of work is said to be positive.
Therefore, work done by a force is positive is q < 900
Examples of Positive Work:(1) When a spring is stretched, the work done by the stretching force is positive as the force acts in the direction of displacement of the spring.
(2) When a body falls freely under gravity, the work done by gravity is positive as force (gravity) and displacement of the body are in the same direction.
