A man pushes the wall and fails to displace it. He does
  1. negative work
  2. positive but not maximum work
  3. no work at all
  4. maximum work

Solution

When man pushes the wall, then he does not produce any displacement in the wall. \(\begin{aligned} & \text {i.e., displacement }=0 \\ \therefore \quad \text { Work done } & =\text { Force } \times \text { Displacement } \\ & =\text { Force } \times 0=0 \end{aligned}\)
