Answer: A force must cause an object to move along the same direction as the force.

Step-by-step explanation:

Work is defined as displacement in the position of an object due to action of force. Mathematically the work done is a product of force and displacement of an object. The direction of the force applied and direction in which object is displaced is always same.


Work=Force* Displacement

When work is done,a force must cause an object to move along the same direction as the force.
