Can the work done by a frictional force be positive or negative?

Consider two blocks of mass $m_1 = 5 \, kg$ and $m_2 = 10 \, kg$ placed on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the blocks and the surface is $\mu = 0.2$. $A$ horizontal force $F$ is applied to the $10 \, kg$ block. What is the maximum force $F$ (in $N$) that can be applied such that neither block moves? (Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$)

$Assertion$: On a rainy day,it is difficult to drive a car or bus at high speed.
$Reason$: The value of the coefficient of friction is lowered due to the wetting of the surface.

$A$ spring is compressed between two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ placed on a horizontal surface as shown in the figure. When the blocks are released,they have initial velocities $v_1$ and $v_2$ as shown. The blocks travel distances $x_1$ and $x_2$ respectively before coming to rest due to friction. The ratio $\left( \frac{x_1}{x_2} \right)$ is

Given in the figure are two blocks $A$ and $B$ of weight $20\ N$ and $100\ N,$ respectively. These are being pressed against a wall by a force $F$ as shown. If the coefficient of friction between the blocks is $0.1$ and between block $B$ and the wall is $0.15$,the frictional force applied by the wall on block $B$ is ........... $N$.
