What is positive, negative and zero work?
Answers
Answer:
Positive work: when force and displacement are in the same direction, the work performed on an object is said to be positive work. ... Example: Work was done the gravity on a rocket going perpendicular upwards.
Zero work: When force and displacement are perpendicular to each other, or when force or displacement is zero.
Negative work: when force and displacement are in opposite direction, the work performed on an object is said to be negative work....example: work done by friction force
☞Positive work: when force and displacement are in the same direction, the work performed on an object is said to be positive work. ...
☞Negative work: Negative work is performed if the displacement is opposite to the direction of the Force applied.
☞ Zero work: When force and displacement are perpendicular to each other, or when force or displacement is zero.
