Question

A force F is applied to the body and body displaces in the direction of force applied. If the force applied to the body is doubled, the work done will be

• A. doubled
• B. halved
• C. tripled
• D. four times

Answer 1

The correct option is A

doubled

A work is said to be done if a force is applied to the body and body displaces in the direction of force applied. So, we can say work done is directly proportional to the force applied and the displacement it produces. Therefore, if the force is doubled, work done also gets doubled.
