Solution
The correct option is
A
True
The force acting on a body moving in a circular path, and is directed towards the center around which the body is moving is called centripetal force.
Since there is a circular motion, and no displacement is caused by the force, the work done is said to be zero.
Hence, the given statement is
true.
