Assertion : The work done by the spring ...

Assertion : The work done by the spring force in a cyclic process is zero.
Reason : Spring force is a conservative force.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is a the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is true and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In case of spring forces, the work done only depends on the initial and final positions. So spring force is a conservative force and in cyclie process the initial and final positions are same.

    Assertion : Comets move around the sun in elliptical orbits. The gravitational force on the comet due to sun is not normal to the comet’s velocity but the work done by the gravitational force over every complete orbit of the comet is zero. Reason : Gravitational force is a non conservative force.

    Assertion :- Work done by frictional force may be sometimes path independent. Reason :- Frictional force is a non - conservative force.

    Assertion : Work done by the centripetal force in moving a body along a circle is always zero. Reason : Because displacement of the body is along the force.

    Work done by a force on an object is zero, if

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