JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 5. work,energy,power and collision

A force \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}=2 \hat{i}+\mathrm{b} \hat{j}+\hat{k}\) is applied on a particle and it undergoes a displacement \(\hat{i}-2 \hat{j}-\hat{k}\). What will be the value of \(b\), if work done on the particle is zero.

  1. A 0
  2. B \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  3. C 2
  4. D \(\frac{1}{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & w=0 \\ & \therefore \quad \vec{F} \cdot S=0 \\ & (2 \hat{i}+b \hat{j}+\hat{k}) \cdot(\hat{i}-2 \hat{j}-\hat{k})=0 \\ & 2-2 b-1=0 \\ & b=\frac{1}{2}\end{aligned}\)
