Question
In case of negative work, the angle between the force and displacement is :
Options
0°
45°
90°
180°
Solution
Work done is negative when the direction of force is opposite to the direction of motion. So, the angle between force and displacement in the case of negative work is .
Therefore, the answer is, (d) 180°
