is work done zero in carrying a suitcase over head???

Answers

Answered by harshitren

yes,the work done is zero because force and displacement are in right angle .As we know w=fscos(α) where (α is angle).since cos 90 is 0,total product is zero.So work done is zero.

shabb1: w is zero in holding it bt if we travel taking it over head then work is also zero??

Divyankasc: Nopes, work is done

shabb1: cn u please xplain??

Divyankasc: W = Fs ... When the suitcase is on head, s = 0 so w = Fs = F × 0 = 0.....But when the suitcase is moving the displacement is not zero so work done IS also not zero

shabb1: thnks

Divyankasc: Understood?

shabb1: ya

Divyankasc: Welcome :)

Work done is zero while just holding it over head. But while carrying, distance is covered so work is also done.
