Solution

The correct option is C Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False
Work done depends on displacement of point of application of force and not on displacement of center of mass. Hence statement-2 is false.
As an example, if a ring is rotated about its center of mass by applying a tangential force, work is done but the center of mass of the ring does not move.
