Negative work:Workcan be either positive ornegative: if the force has a component in the same direction as the displacement of the object, the force is doing positivework. If the force has a component in the direction opposite to the displacement, the force doesnegative work. (Eg:Now, since the direction of Frictional force and that of displacement is opposite, hence thework done here by the Frictional force is negative.) read less

Why are we able to sip hot tea or milk faster from a saucer rather than a cup?
Surface area of a saucer is greater than the cup. More the surface area more there will be exchange the heat with the surrounding to reduce temperature of tea as well as more quantity of tea will enter in the mouth in one sip in case of saucer.

Why when a ball dropped from a height, its speed continuously increased?
the potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy so obviously yes. as velocity is the only variable , as the height decreases, there should be a corresponding increase in the velocity. (potential energy = mgh, kinetic energy = 1/2 mvxv
