What is represented by the product of force with displacement in the direction of force?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. Work.
The product of force and displacement in the direction of the force represents work. Mathematically, work W is given by W=F⋅d⋅cos(θ) , where F is the applied force, d is the displacement, and θ is the angle between the force and the displacement direction. When force and displacement are in the same direction (θ=0), cos(0)=1, simplifying the equation to W=F⋅d.
