Is it possible that force is acting on a body but still work done is zero explain
Answers
For example:
If you push a wall you are applying force but there is no displacement of wall.
So work done which is equal to product of force and displacement will be zero.
Hope you get your answer.
Yes, a force may act on a object but the work done is always zero.
Explanation:
- Yes, a force may act on a object but the work done is always zero. There are the following cases:
1. The displacement will be zero.
2. The force is perpendicular to each other and the displacement.
We know that,
W = FS cos θ
Where,
W is Work done
F is Force
S is Displacement
θ is Angle between displacement and force
From the formula itself, the work done is negligible when the displacement is nil.
- Example-1: No work is completed when one moves a static wall even after a really hard drive. If the force is still perpendicular to the way of motion, the work done is zero as well.
- Example-2: Work done on a horizontally moving body by the force of gravity is zero, since the gravitational force is parallel to the horizontal.
