a particle moving to the left is slowed by a force pushing to the right. is he work done by the force on the particle positive or negative? or is there not enough information to tell? explain your answer.



Answer :

The work done in the particle is negative when the direction of force and displacement are same.

What is displacement ?

displacement is defined as the change in position of an object. It is a vector of  quantity and has a direction and the  magnitude. It is the represented as an arrow that of  points from to the starting position to the final position. For example- If an object moves from Column A  position to column B, then the object's position changes.

displacement it is (symbolise as d or s ) also called length or distance ,is a one dimensional quantity representing the separation between two defined points.

Sol-In this case the force is acting to right and the it's  movement of the particle is to the   the left. Which is in  opposite direction to the each other so the work done by the force on the particle is negative.
