Question

5. What is the work done, if displacement is perpendicular to the direction of force?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Work done on an object along a given direction of motion is equal to force times the displacement times the cosine of the angle. No work is done along the direction of motion if the force is perpendicular( since cosine of 90 degrees is zero). Hence work done is 0J

When displacement is perpendicular to the force work done is?

${\Huge{\fcolorbox{green}{GREEN}{Answer}}}$

Forces have zero effect in perpendicular direction, and because of this, if the force and the displacement are perpendicular to each other, that work done by that force should be zero because the force had no effect in that direction.
