5.Work, Energy, Power and Collision
easy
A particle is acted upon by a force of constant magnitude which is always perpendicular to the velocity of the particle, the motion of the particle takes place in a plane. It follows that
A
Its velocity is constant
B
Its acceleration is constant
C
Its kinetic energy is constant
D
It moves in a straight line
(AIEEE-2004)
Solution
(c)When a force of constant magnitude which is perpendicular to the velocity of particle acts on a particle, work done is zero and hence change in kinetic energy is zero.
