Assertion : Work done by the centripetal...

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.

A

If both, Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is correct explantion of Assertion.

B

If both, Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true but the Reason is false.

D

If both, Assertion and Reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Work done by centripetal force is zero, because displacement of body is perpendicular to the direction of force, `W=F s cos 90^(@)= zero`
