Is pushing against an immovable object is an example of work?
when force is applied and work is done In order to accomplish work on an object there must be a force exerted on the object and it must move in the direction of the force. for example if u climb a tree u are doing work and force is applied
Is rolling a cart up a ramp an example of doing negative work?
"Negative work" is defined as energy exerted in the opposite direction from the displacement of the object. So here, in addition to adding to the gravitational potential energy, the work is positive.
In the force has a component in the opposite direction from the motion the work done is negative?
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.
Once an object is in motion what is an example of a force that will slow it down?
Friction. Air Resistance or Water Resistance, depending on where you are and what your doing.
Explain - how you can exert a large force on an object without doing any work?
You make somebody else do it. haha :p
The gravitational force exerted on an object?
Is called upthrust it represents you doing something and the weight of upthrust pulling you up

Is it true that no force is needed to keep an object doing what it is already doing?
Deep question, but at the end of the day, Yes. It is true that no force is needed. Because if you put an object into space for example, it will continue what it is doing. If there was no gravity, it would just sit there.
WHAT IS THE DESIRE OF AN OBJECT TO KEEP DOING WHAT IT IS DOING IS TERMED WHAT?
The desire of an object to keep doing what it is doing is called inertia. "What it is doing" means that it is in motion or at rest,

What is addicition?
An addiction is when either your mind or your body feels that it can't live without doing, digesting, or using a certain object.

Why do scientist use measuring instruments?
That's because doing science typically involves making many measurements. For example, if you do lab exercises in science, you might measure an object's length
What does indiscriminate mean?
Indiscriminate means to do something randomly or without careful judgment. An example would be doing a crime without thinking about what would happen.
