Question

What should be the direction between force and displacement to
achieve:
(1) maximum work
(2) minimum work​

Answer 1

Answer:

The angle between force and displacement for i) Minimum Work and ii) Maximum Work should be. The angle between force and displacement should be θ = 90° for minimum work. The angle between force and displacement should be θ = 0° for maximum work.

Answer 2

Answer:

max work: Force and displacement should be in the same direction i.e. angle between force and displacement should be 0

minimum work: Force and displacement should be perpendicular to each other i.e. Angle between force and displacement should be 90 degrees
