When a body moves in a circular path, no work is done by the force, since

  1. A there is no net force
  2. B there is no displacement
  3. C force is always away from the centre
  4. D force and displacement are perpendicular to each other
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) force and displacement are perpendicular to each other

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

When a body moves in a circular path, then centripetal force is always directed towards centre of circular path. Hence, centripetal force and displacement (directed tangentially) are perpendicular to each other. \(\therefore\) Work done…
