If a horse pulls a cart, work done by horse is _.
Correct answer: C. Positive
- A. Negative
- B. Zero
- C. Positive
- D. None of these
Explanation
Correct Option:CThis option is correct because in case of horse and cart the applied force and the direction of displacement is same that is why work done is positive.

About Work
Work is done when a force produces displacement, with its value determined by the component of force along the displacement. The topic covers positive, negative and zero work, work by variable forces from force-displacement graphs, and the connection between net work and change in kinetic energy.
