I gave you a link AND a textbook reference. You can check whether I
made it up for yourself.
I also gave you a summary because you always ask for a summary. But if
you don't believe the summary, then you have to look it up yourself.

I also gave you a textbook reference and quoted it and summarized it
for you. If you only read summaries and then doubt them, then you will
never be able to discover the truth of anything.

Oh, but I have. It's a shame you cannot remember what was told to you
yesterday.

It doesn't. You claim this, but you are lying, and you refuse to cite
the ISBN or correct Library of Congress catalog number to allow
someone to check your claim. You are lying and you are attempting to
cover up your lie.

Oh, but it does. See for example the high school text Holt Physics
(2009). Chapter 5, Section 2, where it shows the work done by gravity
in free fall (that is, with zero resistance).

Yes, we agreed there is no work when there is no force against no
resistance. But there is indeed work done when there is force against
no resistance.

You keep confusing the two, as though a hockey puck is the only case
in the world where there is no resistance.
