Displacement at an Angle to the Force: Consider an object of mass (m) in sliding on an inclined surface. In general, if the displacement “s” of an object makes an angle θ with the force F acting on it, the work done by the force is:W = Fs cos θ.
Work done the by the force can be posititve, negative and zero based on the value of cos .
Positive Work Done: The work done is positive when there is net displacement in the direction of force this is possible when the angle between the force and displacemnt is an acute angle.The force of gravity on this object is mg, which acts in the vertically downward direction. We can say that the object is displaced in the vertically downward direction. Since the displacement in the direction of the force is AB, the work done is:
W = mg ( AB )= mg ( s cos θ ) = mg
Here θ is an acute angle.
Zero Work Done: Work done can be zero if the angle between displacement and force is 90 degree. because if the line of action of force is perpendicular to displacemnet, we can say that the displacement is not because of this force.
W = mg(s cos θ) , as cos θ = 0 , therefore W = 0
Neagtive Work Done: Work done can be negative of the angle between force and dispalcement is an obtuse angle. This is the situation in which the force applied is opposing the displacement. The example is the case when we apply brakes on the road. the road can be plane or inclined.
W = mg(s cos θ) , as cos θ has a negative value , therefore W = negative value
Which of the following are correct : (a) Work done can be zero if the angle between displacement and force is 900. (b) Work done can be negative of the angle between force and displacement is an obtuse angle. | |||

A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
