Work done by a force is zero when the angle between force and displacement is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Work done by a force is zero when the angle between force and displacement is
A. 45°
B. 0°
C. 180°
D. 90°
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
W = Fd cosθ, cos90° = 0, so work zero. e.g., coolie carrying load horizontally.

Question #3
A projectile is fired at an angle of 45 degrees to the horizontal. The ratio of its maximum height to its horizontal range is:
A. 1:4
B. 1:2
C. 2:1
D. 4:1

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
The maximum height H = (u^2 * sin^2(theta)) / 2g. The horizontal range R = (u^2 * sin(2theta)) / g. For an angle of 45 degrees, sin(45) = 1/sqrt(2) and sin(90) = 1. H = (u^2 * 0.5) / 2g = u^2 / 4g. R = u^2 / g. Therefore, H/R = (u^2/4g) / (u^2/g) = 1/4. The ratio is 1:4.
