Physics-Work-Energy Theorem

NEET Physics Work-Energy Theorem Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Medium-Class 11

Assertion (A): The work-energy theorem is applicable to all types of forces, including non-conservative forces like friction. | Reason (R): The work-energy theorem relates the work done by all forces acting on an object to the change in its kinetic energy, regardless of the nature of the forces.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false but R is true.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The work-energy theorem states that the total work done by all forces (conservative and non-conservative) equals the change in kinetic energy, thus supporting both the assertion and reason.
