Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11
Consider a scenario where a block is moving on a smooth horizontal table. Describe the work done by gravitational force on the block, and select the correct option describing the nature of this work.
A
The gravitational force does no work as it acts perpendicular to the displacement.
B
The gravitational force does positive work because it acts in the direction of motion.
C
The gravitational force does negative work since it opposes the motion.
D
The gravitational force does work equal to the kinetic energy of the block.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In the given context, the gravitational force acts at right angles to the displacement of the block, hence it does no work.
