You lift a suit case from the floor and keep it on a table. The work done by you on the suitcase does not depend on.
Correct answer: A. The path taken by the suitcase
- A. The path taken by the suitcase
- B. Initial and final position
- C. Weight of the suitcase
- D. None
Explanation
Option A is correct. Work done is conservative as it doesn't depends on path followed by body.

About Work and Energy
Work transfers energy when a force causes displacement, while kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy and power describe motion, position and the rate of energy transfer. The work-energy theorem links net work with change in kinetic energy, and efficiency accounts for energy losses rather than treating them as energy destruction.
