A mass of 10 kg at a point A on the table is moved to a point B. If the line joining A & B is horizontal, what is the work done on the object by gravitational force ? Explain your answer.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The work done on the object by gravitational force is zero, since the angle between force and motion of object is zero.
