Solution

The correct option is A True
  1. Inertial frame of reference means an object has a zero net force and it moves at a constant velocity.
  2. The work-energy theorem is valid for all the frames of reference, whether it is inertial or non-inertial frames.
  3. We can apply the work-energy theorem in a non-inertial frame provided we take into account the work done by the pseudo force also.

Hence, the given statement is True.
