Answer:

b The force is perpendicular to the displacement of the object.

Step-by-step explanation:

Work is done when a force is applied on a body causing it to move in a particular direction.

Work done = Force x displacement

For work to be done, a force must applied on a body to move it through a specific distance in direction.

When force is perpendicular to the displacement of the object, the component vector resolution is 0 and the work done is 0.
