The Earth moving round the sun in a circular orbit is acted upon by a force and hence work must be done on the Earth by the force. Do you agree with this statement ?

Explanation

The statement is wrong as the centripetal force acting on the Earth is at right angles to the direction of its displacement i.e., centripetal force is along the radius of the circular orbit and the displacement is along its tangent. (Radius and tangent are perpendicular to each other).
