No work is done by a force on an object if

A

the object is stationary but the point of aplication or the force moves on the object

B

the object moves in such a way that the point of application of the force remains fixed

C

the force is always perpendicular to its velocity

D

the force is always perpendicular to its acceleration.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, D

`W=Fcos theta=0`, when either `s=0` or `theta=90^(@) i.e.` when object is stationary but the point of application fo the force moves on the object or object moves in such a way that point of application of force remains fixed, or force is at `90^(@)` to the acceleration. Choice `(a), (b), (d)` are correct.
