In which situation is the maximum possible work done?


when the angle between the force and displacement is 0°

when the angle between the force and displacement is 180°

when the angle between the force and displacement is 45°

when the angle between the force and displacement is 90°

Respuesta :

A) When the angle between the Force (F) and Displacement (x) is 0°, because, Work done (W) is directly proportional to the Cosine of the Angle between the Force applied and the resultant displacement of the subject.
W = F•x cos ∅
If ∅ = 0°,
W = F•x ===> Maximum Work Done.
If ∅ = 45°,
W = F•x/√2
If ∅ = 90°,
W = 0
If ∅ = 180°,
W = –F•x ===> Minimum Work Done.

Answer:

when the angle between the force and displacement is 0°
