A boy swings a ball on a string at constant speed in a circle that has a circumference equal to 6 m. What is the work done on th
e ball by the 10 N tension force in the string during one revolution of the ball
1 answer:
Answer:
0 J
Explanation:
From the diagram below; we would notice that the Force (F) = Tension (T)
Also the angle θ adjacent to the perpendicular line = 90 °
The Workdone W = F. d
W = Fd cos θ
W = Fd cos 90°
W = Fd (0)
W = 0 J
Hence the force is perpendicular to the direction of displacement and the net work done in a circular motion in one complete revolution is = 0
