Complete the correlation:
Pushing a wall without moving it : Zero work done :: Pulling a bucket of water up from a well : _____
Zero work done
Work done against gravity
Negative displacement
No force applied
Solution
Pushing a stationary wall results in zero displacement (zero work), whereas pulling a bucket upward applies force that displaces the bucket against gravity, resulting in work being done.
