Assertion : In circular motion work done by all the forces acting on the body is zero. Reason : Centripetal force and velocity are mutually perpendicular.

Assertion : If both the speed of a body and radius of its circular path are doubled, then centripetal force also gets doubled. Reason : Centripetal force is directly proportional to both speed of a body and radius of circular path.

A body is moving along a circular path. How much work is done by the centripetal force?

Why is the work done by a centripetal force equal to zero?

Centripetal force is provided by the real forces acting on the body in motion.

To move a body along a circular path the direction of centripetal force will be
