A force does work on an object if a component of the force __________.
Group of answer choices

a. is parallel to the displacement of the object

b. is perpendicular to the displacement of the object

c. perpendicular to the displacement of the object moves the object along a path that returns to its starting point

d. parallel to the displacement of the object moves the object along a path that returns to its starting point

Respuesta :

Option A.  A force does work on an object if a component of the force is  is parallel to the displacement of the object.

Work done by force

The force applied to an object to displace it from a given point to another point is known as work done on the object.

W = Fd cosθ

where;

  • f is the magnitude of applied force
  • d is the displacement of the object.
  • θ is the angle between the applied force and displacement.

Thus, A force does work on an object if a component of the force is  is parallel to the displacement of the object.
