Solution

The correct option is A

1-ii, 2-ii, 3-iv, 4-i


When the angle is zero, the value of cosθ is one and then depending on the value of F and d, work may be zero or positive. So work done is non-negative. Same is the case when θ is less than 90°. When θ is greater than 90° then value of cosθ is negative. So work done is never positive. However, it can be zero depending on force and the displacement value. When cosθ is 90°, then value of cosθ is zero. So work done is always zero.
