In which situation is no work being done?

ANo force is applied
BThe force does not result in displacement
CThe force and displacement are perpendicular to each other
DThe force and displacement are in the same direction

Verified Answer :

Answer:

Work is said to occur when a force is able to cause displacement of an object in the direction of the applied force. It is given by the scalar product of force and displacement.

W = F.s = F s cos θ

Thus, no work is being done when no force is applied ( ∵ F = 0, W = 0) or the force does not result into displacement (∵ s = 0, F = 0) or when the force and displacement are perpendicular to each other (∵ θ =0, cos θ =0, W =0).
