MCQ
In which case, work done will be zero:
  • A
    A weight$-$lifter while holding a weight of $100\ kg$ on his shoulders for $1$min.
  • B
    A locomotive against gravity when it is running on a level plane with a speed of $60\ kmh^{-1}$.
  • C
    A person holding a suitcase on his head and standing at a bus terminal All of the above.
  • All of the above.

Answer

Correct option: D.
All of the above.
Work done by weight$-$lifter is zero because there is no displacement.
In a locomotive, work done is zero because force and displacement are mutually perpendicular to each other.
While a person holding a suitcase, work done is zero because there is no displacement.
