Answer: Work

Step-by-step explanation:

Work is said to be done when an applied force to an object causes the object to move at a particular distance. Before work can be done, an object must have been moved at a distance. For example, a boy climbing a ladder, the boy is said to be doing work because he is covering a distance by climbing a ladder. A situation where no work is done is when a person is throwing a stone at a stationary object because both the person and the object are not moving.
