Question

Work and energy are two independent terms.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. A work is said to be done on a body when a force causes a displacement in its direction.
2. Energy is defined as the capacity of a body to do work.
3. More the energy possessed by a body, greater is its capacity to do work.
4. This also implies that when we do some work, energy is spent. So they are related to each other.
5. Thus, we can say that work and energy are not independent terms.

Hence, the given statement is false.
