According to Newtons 3rd law, "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction". if you exert force on an object, the object will exert an equal and opposite force on you. when the forces exerted by you and the object balance a state of equilibrium is attained. however if you exert a force greater than the weight of the body, the body begins to move and work is done.
Yes, throwing the ball requires a force, and work is done when a force moves a mass over a distance.
No the work done is still positive, the force exerted and the work done to exert that force is still the same. Its just that the other object is exerting more of a force on the object doing the work.
The work done would be calculated by 2mgh. The force on the ball is calculated by mg, and work done is by Fd, where d is 2h (the force acts on both upwards height and downwards height, thus twice the distance).
Work = Force x DistanceWork = 400 x 4 Work = 1600 Nm Work = 1600 Joules Work = 1600 J

The answer would depend on the units used for the force. Since these are not specified, it is not possible to answer the question.
If the ball is falling, then work is being done.Work is the product of (force) times (distance). The ball in the air has force acting on it, created by gravity, and known as the "weight" of the ball. If the ball is falling, then the work done on it by gravity is (its weight) multiplied by (the distance it falls).If the ball is accelerating up, then something has to be providing force greater than its weight, in order to lift it against the force of gravity. It may be a muscle, a motor, an elevator, or some kind of air-foil taking energy out of wind. The work done on the ball is (the upward force on it) multiplied by (the distance it's lifted).If the ball is moving only horizontally, and not the slightest bit up or down, then almost no work is being done, since there's no significant horizontal force acting on it. The ball does a small amount of work to move air as it moves through the atmosphere.
The work done would be calculated by 2mgh. The force on the ball is calculated by mg, and work done is by Fd, where d is 2h (the force acts on both upwards height and downwards height, thus twice the distance).
force = mass * acceleration = 2 * -9.82 = -19.64 newtons work done = force * distance = -19.64 * 5.092 metres = -100 joules
Work = Force x DistanceWork = 400 x 4 Work = 1600 Nm Work = 1600 Joules Work = 1600 J
Unfortunately, 0. The rock has 0 displacement, so despite force being exerted no work was done (at least in physics terms).
Work done equals force times distance, so 10.0 times 0.9 is 9 joules.
