STANDARD Physics Work Done by a Constant Force MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

In the previous question, the work done by friction in 10 s is

A

200 J

B

−200 J

C

600 J

D

−600 J

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

The frictional force and the displacement are in opposite direction, therefore the angle between frictional force and displacement is θ = 180°. Thus, work done by the friction is W₁ = f d cos 180° = (2 N)(100 m) cos 180° = −200 J.
