NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Easy-Class 11

Which of the following statements about the work-energy theorem and its implications is correct?

A

The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic energy is equal to the work done by the net force acting on the particle.

B

The work-energy theorem only applies to constant forces acting on an object.

C

Work done by gravitational force is always positive, contributing to an increase in kinetic energy.

D

The work-energy theorem can be used to derive the relationship between torque and angular motion directly.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The work-energy theorem, as stated in the context, indicates that the change in kinetic energy of a particle is equal to the work done on it by the net force, thus affirming option A as correct.
